Abstract
A number of IoT devices are continuously increasing day by day and generating a tremendous amount of data. This generated data passed to cloud for processing but some application requires a quick response. To overcome this situation, fog computing is used which is placed between IoT and Cloud computing. Fog computing is placed at the edge of the cloud data center. The allocation of resources and distributing workload is called load balancing. Load balancing ensures appropriate distribution of workload. Extensive research has been conducted to implement load balancing in fog computing. Having understood the importance of load balancing, this paper presents a survey of load balancing algorithms implemented in fog computing. The paper also presents an analysis based on different metrics of Fog computing and simulation tool used for implementing load balancing in fog computing.
