This paper considers the problem of `balanced' allocation of incoming jobs to a set of machines with varying efficiencies. A variance criterion is used for defining the extent of imbalance. This research also deals with the case when the rate of disposal of jobs by a machine is not deterministic but a random variable. A few alternative criteria for imbalance are also proposed.
