The majority of CPUs now sold contain multiple computing cores. However, current desktop grid computing systems either ignore the multiplicity of cores, or treat them as distinct,...
Scheduling large amounts of tasks in distributed computing platforms composed of millions of nodes is a challenging goal, even more in a fully decentralized way and with low overhe...
In a desktop grid model, the job (computational task) is submitted for execution in the resource only when the resource is idle. There is no guarantee that the job which has starte...
Desktop Grids are rapidly gaining popularity as a costeffective computing platform for the execution of applications with extensive computing needs. As opposed to grids and cluste...
Whereas traditional Desktop Grids rely on centralized servers for data management, some recent progress has been made to enable distributed, large input data, using to peer-to-peer...
