- 2 - Korea@Home Project? Maybe, most of you know SETI@Home Folding@Home Distributed.net And many other distributed computing like them
3
- 3 - Architecture Client/Server Style Partitioning a work into many jobs Data or Computational Intensively Distributing the jobs into available PCs Aggregating back the computing results
4
- 4 - Design Goals For customers with application Easy to use General enough to support a variety of applications Correctness For PC resource providers Transparent not to bother Secure and privacy-guarantee Compensation For Server Scalable Adaptable
5
- 5 - Status in 2002 Construct a platform 4 components of servers Main Control server Authentication server Scheduling and distribution server Database Agent for PCs Experiment on the platform Virtual Screening for New Drug Design
6
- 6 - 2003 and Future Plan Architecture Hybrid P2P For more scalable, data sharing Complementary Studies Fault-tolerance Security More subscribers up to 50,000 New applications Explore compatibilities with GRID Variety of resources
