Balanced Field Length Q

Ladies/Gents,

Having performed a search re balanced field length, and not found what I was looking for, I'd just like to clear something up on the subject.

Is balanced field length defined as when:

a) the accelerate stop distance (ASD) = accelerate go distance (AGD),
b) or when the accelerate stop distance available (ASDA) = take-off distance available (TODA)?

Thank you in anticipation,
