hi every body,
consider this :
Network block device ( NBD , /usr/src/linux/drivers/blocknbd.c) makes it possible to export ur block device to any machine on the network. that means provides a interface to use block device ( say hard disk ) that is not present physically present on machine . and all this is hidden from user program .
i just wanted to know that can we extend this idea to other resources also , i mean make a generic system that makes possible export any thing any where including ur main memory and processor . so that if in a cluster one machine is having more load on it , it can use ram and processing power of cpu of other machine over the network. i am not very clear with what i am saying , wether it is posssible or not , so think on it so that i can proceed .
thanks
Regards ,
