Volunteer computing resource discovery algorithm in grid environments

Abstract: In grid environment, the peer-to-peer computer network is beneficial to build a scalable volunteer computing environment. Large-scale computations often need a great deal of scalable volunteer computing resources. In this paper a resource discovery and organization algorithm was proposed in the peer-to-peer computer network environment. This algorithm improved on the resource discovery methods in existence. At last, it can be shown that this algorithm have many advantages, compared with others. Key-Words: volunteer computing; grid computing; resource discovery
