Distributed anonymous discrete function computation
We propose a model for deterministic distributed function computation by a network of identical and anonymous nodes. In this model, each node has bounded computation and storage c...

High-Performance Task Distribution for Volunteer Computing
Volunteer computing projects use a task server to manage work. Clients periodically communicate with the server to report completed tasks and get new tasks. The rate at which the ...
