Worker

All the machines that connects to server to do the job are called workers. This will probably be browsers.

Worker

What workers do, or should do in the future.

  1. Connect to the server
  2. Wait for tasks.
  3. For each task, start new thread and perform the work.
  4. When it is ready, report results to server.
  5. Back to number 2.

Bonus points:

  • Report to server about our capacity. (If we can run another thread, or not.)
  • Workers might authenticate too (verified workers might be needed for some precious data.)
  • Authenticated workers will receive point based on computation power and time offered to server
