CoDiP2P: A Peer-to-Peer Architecture for Sharing Computing Resources

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) computing, the harnessing of idle compute cycles through the Internet, offers new research challenges in the domain of distributed computing. This paper presents CoDiP2P, a Computing Distributed architecture using the P2P paradigm. CoDiP2P allows computing resources from ordinary users to be shared in an open access by means of creating dynamic areas of computing resources in a completely distributed, scalable and fault tolerant way. This paper discusses its system architecture and evaluates its functionality by means of simulation.
