A Multi-Level WEB Based Parallel Processing System: A Hierarchical Volunteer Computing Approach

Tags:
parallel processing

Overview Over the past few years, a number of efforts have been exerted to build parallel processing systems that utilize the idle power of LAN's and PC's available in many homes and corporations. The main advantage of these approaches is that they provide cheap parallel processing environments for those who cannot afford the expenses of supercomputers and parallel processing hardware. However, most of the solutions provided are not very flexible in the use of available resources and very difficult to install and setup. In this paper, a Multi-level Web-based Parallel Processing System (MWPS) is designed.

Project Nevis to take BT to new broadband highs?

In homes and work environments, BT is the major backer of Bluephone, which will initially see mobile handsets that can roam onto fixed networks - with some obvious advantages - using a broadband connection and Bluetooth.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
