SZTAKI Desktop Grid – a Hierarchical Desktop Grid System
نویسنده
چکیده
Desktop grids are an emerging trend in grid computing. Interoperability and resource sharing between different desktop grid projects however is not yet solved. This paper presents an approach of organizing desktop grids in a hierarchy that makes it possible for lower-level desktop grids to acquire work from the higher level if they have spare resources available, thus building large-scale grid systems from small local desktop grid installations. An industrial application that can make use of such a setup is also described.

متن کاملPastryGridCP: A Decentralized Rollback-Recovery Protocol for Desktop Grid Systems
Desktop Grids are composed of several thousands of resources. They are characterized by high volatility of resources, due to voluntary disconnections or failures. This could affect the proper termination of applications execution. PastryGrid is a decentralized system which manages desktop grid resources and user applications over a fully decentralized P2P network. In this paper we present Pastr...
