Work-stealing algorithms and adaptive load balancing Core Capabilities 1. Work-Stealing Algorithms // Advanced work-stealing implementation const workStealingScheduler = { // Distributed queue system globalQueue : new PriorityQueue ( ) , localQueues : new Map ( ) , // agent-id -> local queue // Work-stealing algorithm async stealWork ( requestingAgentId ) { const victims = this . getVictimCandidates ( requestingAgentId ) ; for ( const victim of victims ) { const stolenTasks = await this . attemptSteal ( victim , requestingAgentId ) ; if ( stolenTasks . length

0 ) { return stolenTasks ; } } // Fallback to global queue return await this . getFromGlobalQueue ( requestingAgentId ) ; } , // Victim selection strategy getVictimCandidates ( requestingAgent ) { return Array . from ( this . localQueues . entries ( ) ) . filter ( ( [ agentId , queue ] ) => agentId !== requestingAgent && queue . size ( )

this . stealThreshold ) . sort ( ( a , b ) => b [ 1 ] . size ( ) - a [ 1 ] . size ( ) ) // Heaviest first . map ( ( [ agentId ] ) => agentId ) ; } } ; 2. Dynamic Load Balancing // Real-time load balancing system const loadBalancer = { // Agent capacity tracking agentCapacities : new Map ( ) , currentLoads : new Map ( ) , performanceMetrics : new Map ( ) , // Dynamic load balancing async balanceLoad ( ) { const agents = await this . getActiveAgents ( ) ; const loadDistribution = this . calculateLoadDistribution ( agents ) ; // Identify overloaded and underloaded agents const { overloaded , underloaded } = this . categorizeAgents ( loadDistribution ) ; // Migrate tasks from overloaded to underloaded agents for ( const overloadedAgent of overloaded ) { const candidateTasks = await this . getMovableTasks ( overloadedAgent . id ) ; const targetAgent = this . selectTargetAgent ( underloaded , candidateTasks ) ; if ( targetAgent ) { await this . migrateTasks ( candidateTasks , overloadedAgent . id , targetAgent . id ) ; } } } , // Weighted Fair Queuing implementation async scheduleWithWFQ ( tasks ) { const weights = await this . calculateAgentWeights ( ) ; const virtualTimes = new Map ( ) ; return tasks . sort ( ( a , b ) => { const aFinishTime = this . calculateFinishTime ( a , weights , virtualTimes ) ; const bFinishTime = this . calculateFinishTime ( b , weights , virtualTimes ) ; return aFinishTime - bFinishTime ; } ) ; } } ; 3. Queue Management & Prioritization // Advanced queue management system class PriorityTaskQueue { constructor ( ) { this . queues = { critical : new PriorityQueue ( ( a , b ) => a . deadline - b . deadline ) , high : new PriorityQueue ( ( a , b ) => a . priority - b . priority ) , normal : new WeightedRoundRobinQueue ( ) , low : new FairShareQueue ( ) } ; this . schedulingWeights = { critical : 0.4 , high : 0.3 , normal : 0.2 , low : 0.1 } ; } // Multi-level feedback queue scheduling async scheduleNext ( ) { // Critical tasks always first if ( ! this . queues . critical . isEmpty ( ) ) { return this . queues . critical . dequeue ( ) ; } // Use weighted scheduling for other levels const random = Math . random ( ) ; let cumulative = 0 ; for ( const [ level , weight ] of Object . entries ( this . schedulingWeights ) ) { cumulative += weight ; if ( random <= cumulative && ! this . queues [ level ] . isEmpty ( ) ) { return this . queues [ level ] . dequeue ( ) ; } } return null ; } // Adaptive priority adjustment adjustPriorities ( ) { const now = Date . now ( ) ; // Age-based priority boosting for ( const queue of Object . values ( this . queues ) ) { queue . forEach ( task => { const age = now - task . submissionTime ; if ( age

this . agingThreshold ) { task . priority += this . agingBoost ; } } ) ; } } } 4. Resource Allocation Optimization // Intelligent resource allocation const resourceAllocator = { // Multi-objective optimization async optimizeAllocation ( agents , tasks , constraints ) { const objectives = [ this . minimizeLatency , this . maximizeUtilization , this . balanceLoad , this . minimizeCost ] ; // Genetic algorithm for multi-objective optimization const population = this . generateInitialPopulation ( agents , tasks ) ; for ( let generation = 0 ; generation < this . maxGenerations ; generation ++ ) { const fitness = population . map ( individual => this . evaluateMultiObjectiveFitness ( individual , objectives ) ) ; const selected = this . selectParents ( population , fitness ) ; const offspring = this . crossoverAndMutate ( selected ) ; population . splice ( 0 , population . length , ... offspring ) ; } return this . getBestSolution ( population , objectives ) ; } , // Constraint-based allocation async allocateWithConstraints ( resources , demands , constraints ) { const solver = new ConstraintSolver ( ) ; // Define variables const allocation = new Map ( ) ; for ( const [ agentId , capacity ] of resources ) { allocation . set ( agentId , solver . createVariable ( 0 , capacity ) ) ; } // Add constraints constraints . forEach ( constraint => solver . addConstraint ( constraint ) ) ; // Objective: maximize utilization while respecting constraints const objective = this . createUtilizationObjective ( allocation ) ; solver . setObjective ( objective , 'maximize' ) ; return await solver . solve ( ) ; } } ; MCP Integration Hooks Performance Monitoring Integration // MCP performance tools integration const mcpIntegration = { // Real-time metrics collection async collectMetrics ( ) { const metrics = await mcp . performance_report ( { format : 'json' } ) ; const bottlenecks = await mcp . bottleneck_analyze ( { } ) ; const tokenUsage = await mcp . token_usage ( { } ) ; return { performance : metrics , bottlenecks : bottlenecks , tokenConsumption : tokenUsage , timestamp : Date . now ( ) } ; } , // Load balancing coordination async coordinateLoadBalancing ( swarmId ) { const agents = await mcp . agent_list ( { swarmId } ) ; const metrics = await mcp . agent_metrics ( { } ) ; // Implement load balancing based on agent metrics const rebalancing = this . calculateRebalancing ( agents , metrics ) ; if ( rebalancing . required ) { await mcp . load_balance ( { swarmId , tasks : rebalancing . taskMigrations } ) ; } return rebalancing ; } , // Topology optimization async optimizeTopology ( swarmId ) { const currentTopology = await mcp . swarm_status ( { swarmId } ) ; const optimizedTopology = await this . calculateOptimalTopology ( currentTopology ) ; if ( optimizedTopology . improvement

0.1 ) { // 10% improvement threshold await mcp . topology_optimize ( { swarmId } ) ; return optimizedTopology ; } return null ; } } ; Advanced Scheduling Algorithms 1. Earliest Deadline First (EDF) class EDFScheduler { schedule ( tasks ) { return tasks . sort ( ( a , b ) => a . deadline - b . deadline ) ; } // Admission control for real-time tasks admissionControl ( newTask , existingTasks ) { const totalUtilization = [ ... existingTasks , newTask ] . reduce ( ( sum , task ) => sum + ( task . executionTime / task . period ) , 0 ) ; return totalUtilization <= 1.0 ; // Liu & Layland bound } } 2. Completely Fair Scheduler (CFS) class CFSScheduler { constructor ( ) { this . virtualRuntime = new Map ( ) ; this . weights = new Map ( ) ; this . rbtree = new RedBlackTree ( ) ; } schedule ( ) { const nextTask = this . rbtree . minimum ( ) ; if ( nextTask ) { this . updateVirtualRuntime ( nextTask ) ; return nextTask ; } return null ; } updateVirtualRuntime ( task ) { const weight = this . weights . get ( task . id ) || 1 ; const runtime = this . virtualRuntime . get ( task . id ) || 0 ; this . virtualRuntime . set ( task . id , runtime + ( 1000 / weight ) ) ; // Nice value scaling } } Performance Optimization Features Circuit Breaker Pattern class CircuitBreaker { constructor ( threshold = 5 , timeout = 60000 ) { this . failureThreshold = threshold ; this . timeout = timeout ; this . failureCount = 0 ; this . lastFailureTime = null ; this . state = 'CLOSED' ; // CLOSED, OPEN, HALF_OPEN } async execute ( operation ) { if ( this . state === 'OPEN' ) { if ( Date . now ( ) - this . lastFailureTime

this . timeout ) { this . state = 'HALF_OPEN' ; } else { throw new Error ( 'Circuit breaker is OPEN' ) ; } } try { const result = await operation ( ) ; this . onSuccess ( ) ; return result ; } catch ( error ) { this . onFailure ( ) ; throw error ; } } onSuccess ( ) { this . failureCount = 0 ; this . state = 'CLOSED' ; } onFailure ( ) { this . failureCount ++ ; this . lastFailureTime = Date . now ( ) ; if ( this . failureCount = this . failureThreshold ) { this . state = 'OPEN' ; } } } Operational Commands Load Balancing Commands
