Abstract

Previously, the study of network computers has been focused on the analysis of communication costs, optimal message routing, and the construction of a communications network connecting geographically distributed computing centers. While these problems are far from being completely solved, enough progress has been made to allow the construction of reasonably efficient network computers. One problem which has not been solved, however, is making such networks economically viable. The solution of this problem is the object of our analysis.
