Which might not even be | the local | server. Large enterprises, and mebbe later collaborating companies, could | set up their own Powergrids. To clarify, I'd intended to mean if MIPS, storage, and/or local or external I/O bandwidth are available on other computers. | The problem(s) being a proprietary patent on some-a these processes (and | mebbe not having pretty-much tamper-proof DigID to identify | trusted computer | resources?). Iirc, Forte Software had products and mebbe patents, on some of this load-sharing. I dunno if they had anything on automatically making the amount of excess resources put into the powergrid exactly equal the amount borrowed at another time. That would help, if powergrids are to scale beyond intra-enterprise size.
