Abstract(in English) In this paper, we choose session control servers as the objects of our studies on the massively distributed systems. For systems like session control servers, the system is required to have a good load balancing scheme. Also some characteristic such as scalability and fault-tolerance are required. We propose a load balancing method that fulfill these requirements. We apply Consistent Hashing as the load balancing scheme for the session control servers. Existing node-ID allocation methods for Consistent Hashing have wide-range of load distribution, so that it is not suitable for the load balancer of the session control servers. We propose a node-ID allocation method that selects the longest range of the ID space and allocates an ID to divide that range. In addition to that, we propose a technique to prevent conflicts between replicas of the virtual nodes. Lastly, we confirm the characteristics of our proposed method by simulations.
