Abstract

Global Computing harvest the idle time ofIn ternet connectedcomputers to run very large distributed applications. The unprecedentedscale ofthe GCS paradigm requires to revisit the basic issuesof distributed systems: performance models, security, fault-toleranceand scalability. The first parts ofthis paper review recent work in GlobalComputing, with particular interest in Peer-to-Peer systems. In the lastsection, we present XtremWeb, the Global Computing System we arecurrently developing.
