Resources of personal devices, whether mobile or stationary, can be productively leveraged to service their users. By doing so, personal users will be able to ubiquitously run relatively complex computational jobs, which cannot be accommodated in their individual personal devices or while they are on the move. To this end, the paper proposes a Personal Super Computer (PSC) that superimpose grid functionality over networked personal devices. In this paper, architectural designs of (PSC) were developed and evaluated thoroughly through a strictly controlled empirical evaluation framework. The results showed that this system has successfully maintained high speedup over regular personal computers under different running conditions.

Abstract


Resources of personal devices, whether mobile or stationary, can be productively leveraged to service their users. By doing so, personal users will be able to ubiquitously run relatively complex computational jobs, which cannot be accommodated in their individual personal devices or while they are on the move. To this end, the paper proposes a Personal Super Computer (PSC) that superimpose grid functionality over networked personal devices. In this paper, architectural designs of (PSC) were developed and evaluated thoroughly through a strictly controlled empirical evaluation framework. The results showed that this system has successfully maintained high speedup over regular personal computers under different running conditions.
