  • Distributed computing framework
    Patent number: 8612580
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to distributing processing tasks from the reduced-performance computer system to at least one other computer system, to processing, at one computer system, a distributed task received from a reduced-performance computer system, and to establishing a simulation environment for testing distributed computing framework functionality. In an embodiment, a reduced-performance computer system monitors computing tasks to determine a processing resource usage level for each task. The computing tasks are part of a software application that is running on the reduced-performance computer system. The reduced-performance computer system determines that one of the monitored tasks is using processing resources beyond a specified threshold level. The reduced-performance computer system sends the task to another computer system that receives, processes and returns the results of the tasks to the reduced-performance computer system.
