In this paper, we describe FOBS: a simple userlevel communication protocol designed to take advantage of the available bandwidth in a highbandwidth, high-delay network environment...
The majority of the world’s computing resources remains idle most of the time. By using this resource pool, an individual computation may be completed in a fraction of time requ...
Volunteer distributed computations utilize spare processor cycles of personal computers that are connected to the Internet. The resulting platforms provide computational power pre...
