Volunteer computing projects use a task server to manage work. Clients periodically communicate with the server to report completed tasks and get new tasks. The rate at which the ...
We describe a peer-to-peer self-organizing overlay network for our global computing system. The preliminary simulation results show that the network has some smallworld characteri...
