Abstract: Load aware load balancing may be provided. Flow duration data associated with a plurality of flows associated with a plurality of servers may be obtained. Then a plurality of queue lengths respectively associated with the plurality of servers may be obtained. Next, a Shortest Expected Delay (SED) score may be determined for each of the plurality of servers based on the flow duration data and the plurality of queue lengths. A flow may then be assigned to a one of the plurality of servers having the lowest SED score.
