Abstract: |
Existing Volunteer
Computing environments are usually dedicated to one project/application and,
what is very often unwelcome nowadays; require some software to be installed
on each volunteer PC. Moreover, the environments are not completely platform-independent
so it is not possible to use a fast growing mobiles computation potential.
The idea of utilizing a web browser as an environment for executing a
volunteer computational task addresses the last issue. The paper presents an
extensible, component oriented volunteer computing platform that may be
easily adapted to different problems. After reviewing existing solutions, the architecture and behavior of the platform is
discussed, and simulation results are given. |
