Abstract
Desktop Grids have emerged as an important methodology to harness the idle cycles of millions of participant desktop PCs over the Internet. However, to effectively utilize the resources of a Desktop Grid, it is necessary to use scheduling policies suitable for such systems. In this paper, we analyze the performance of a policy which is shown to perform well in highly heterogeneous Desktop Grids. The policy utilizes the solution to a linear programming (LP) problem which maximizes system capacity. We suggest robust modifications to address several limitations of the policy.
