摘要: This paper argues that the decentralization feature of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) overlay is more suitable for Volunteer Computing (VC), compared to centralized master/worker structure in terms performance bottleneck and single point failure. Based on P2P Chord, this focused design a workload balancing protocol coordinate VC. The goal was maximize overall speed-up against heterogeneity churn volunteers. roles facilitator volunteers (peers) were defined, key components designed, including job, result container. Distributed algorithms proposed direct workflow joining leaving, job search distribution collection. Criteria metrics evaluate regards effectiveness number Simulations devised completed upon N-Queen Problem measure these qualities. Conclusions confirmed results right track.
