Abstract :
The requirements for computer resources are analyzed under conditions where (a) each center is responsible for providing its own backup equipment, (b) backup is provided by a central pool, and (c) backup is furnished by means of distributed computing. Economic and management implications of each approach are Investigated. Distributed computing is seen to have considerable merit, and further investigations of its application are recommended.
