....resources between jobs based on the constantly changing characteristics of the underlying network. The system has been evaluated over a network of 90 PCs with a bioinformatics application. 1. INTRODUCTION Currently there are a few notable distributed computing platforms such as SETI home [1], distributed.net [3] and United Devices [9] They work on the principle of a user donating their machine to the system so that its free resources can help to process computationally large problems. The widespread success of the Internet has meant that these distributed systems have been able to ....
....to their full potential. These distributed systems rely on a client server model, where the distributed system has one server and many clients. In practice it has been used by the SETI home distributed system very successfully, with up to three million client machines as part of the system [1]. However, since there is only one server (single machine or cluster) for all of the clients there is thus a finite limit on the number of clients the system can handle at any one time, with this limit depending on the network resources and computational resources at the server. A common solution ....
