Harnessing Unused Computer Power Over A Network

["Pittinger, Martin J." <PittiMJ1@central.SSD.JHUAPL.edu>]

Great presentation at APL given by 
> T. P. Spriesterbach for the Technical 
> Exchange Forum "Harnessing Unused 
> Computer Power over a Network". 
> April 3, 1998
> 
> Brief Description:
The presentation given to the Technical Exchange 
> Forum and presents the use of distributed processing 
> for debris analysis. The brief is concentrated on 
> how currently unused networked personal computers 
> could be put to work through the use of distributed 
processing over the network. The author discussed 
> the application of the Enhanced Virtual Executor 
> (EVE) program to distribute a trajectory simulation 
> over a network of personal computers and geometrically 
> increase the processing abilities normally associated 
> with a small desktop computer. The distributed 
> process gave a 14.3 time savings over using a single 
personal computer.

Maybe TASS could use this method in the near future
