Abstract
Virtual workplace server software may perform load balancing functionality in a multi-server desktop virtualization system. One or more virtualization servers may receive and maintain common state information for the desktop virtualization system, and may independently execute one or more load balancing functions based on the common state information. Each server may independently analyze the common state information and determine whether it will execute a load balancing function based on the analysis, thereby allowing the servers to coordinate actions using distributed load balancing algorithms.
