  • Abstract
    The paper shows a possibility of arranging a desktop grid based on the UNICORE 6 which is a well established grid middleware. The grid consists of a number of PC computers which can communicate with the server in a secure way and perform scheduled computational tasks. The main advantage of this system is ease of deployment, flexibility and ease of integration with the large scale grid. We present here results of a simple performance test as well.
