MoBiDiCK: A Tool for Distributed Computing on the Internet
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have developed a system for distributed computing called MoBiDiCK. This system can be used to marshal a large number of processors across the Internet in order to have them collaborate on a single computation. CGI programs on the volunteer processors perform the computations. These utilize a message-passing API and control/synchronization formalism we have developed that uses the HTTP standard and Web servers. The problem domains best served by MoBiDiCK are parallellizable tasks that are CPU-bound (not I/O-bound), and require minimal inter-process communication. Examples of these tasks include detailed protein threading database search computations or Monte-Carlo simulations for ab-initio protein folding.
