Technology for Integrating Idle Computing Cluster Resources into Volunteer Computing Projects
2015 The 5th International Workshop on Computer Science and Engineering-Information Processing and Control Engineering · 2015
In this paper we propose the technology for integrating idle computing cluster resources into volunteer computing projects.The main principles of this technology are the following: only standard cluster user rights and only idle computing cluster resources (i.e. the resources that are not employed by other cluster users) are used.We describe the CluBORun tool implementing this technology for BOINC-based volunteer computing projects.The CluBORun tool was successfully applied to boost the performance of volunteer computing projects SAT@home and OPTIMA@home.
