Abstract :
We present ParCop, a decentralized peer-to-peer (P2P) computing system. In ParCop, the data and tasks are mobilized and flow freely between the computational resources (peers). ParCop allows each peer to utilize as well as to offer computing resources. ParCop uses the P2P model to guard against common problems that other systems suffer from, such as server failure and connection bottleneck. ParCop supports the master/worker style of application, which can be broken down into non-communicating and independent tasks.
