Abstract
Paper presents idea of distributed, decentralized, based on desktop computers system commonly referred as a
volunteer computing. Aspects related with economical and sociological background of the system, as well as technical methods
of its implementation will be discussed. Authors propose solution where owners of computational power can easily join the
network on non-volunteer basis and sell spare machine time. Prototype implementation is based on light virtual machines
distributed using BitTorrent protocol.
