Abstract:
Educational institutes that work with computational science problems need computing
power. Volunteer computing is a trend of donating computer resources by
forming a distributed system. This thesis aims to develop middleware for the grid of
Android smartphones. In this context, a computer grid is defined as the distributed
computing system formed of geographically dispersed heterogeneous computers
connected by a global network. Bidirectional client-server communication is proposed
to shift from the client pulling the work unit to the server pushing it. As a
result, a grid computing system for Android smartphones is designed considering
the specifics of the Android operating system.
