Entropia: architecture and performance of an enterprise desktop grid system
2003
Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing
The exploitation of idle cycles on pervasive desktop PC systems offers the opportunity to increase the available computing power by orders of magnitude (10x -1000x). However, for desktop PC distributed computing to be widely accepted within the enterprise, the systems must achieve high levels of efficiency, robustness, security, scalability, manageability, unobtrusiveness, and openness/ease of application integration. We describe the Entropia distributed computing system as a case study,
