Abstract

Advantage is taken of the processing power of idle PCs (slaves) to process a complex and time consuming task. A master PC subdivides the task into a plurality of parts and sends the parts to the appropriate slaves. The PCs can alternate between functioning as a master and as a slave. The master is protected by a firewall. Every PC has a signalling device to indicate the PCs availability for using its processing power. The flow of computing power between the slaves and the network is monitored, so as to arrive at a net cost basis for every PC.
