| Abstract(in English) | This paper proposes a history-based scheduling method for volunteer computing (VC) systems with unreliable nodes who return erroneous result or leave the system arbitrarily. In such unreliable systems, redundant computation is a basic requirement to enhance the reliability of computation results. The previous redundant computation method, called round-based scheduling, has the drawback of wasting large amounts of idle time, because the performance of nodes are not considered in grouping several nodes for voting. Our method allows significant reduction of idle time, by estimating the expected computation time with history information, and fixing a computation deadline for each node group. Simulation results indicate that our method always improves throughput of VCs for any parameters, such as faulty, sabotage and defection rates. |
