Abstract
Methods and systems for sharing computational resources. A request from a first node is received for the one or more computational resources. The request comprises a service level agreement (SLA) associated with the requested one or more computational resources. The request is compared with one or more advertisements sent by at least two second nodes, other than the first node. The one or more advertisements correspond to an availability of a set of computational resources associated with each of the at least two second nodes. A portion of computational resources from the set of computational resources associated with each of the at least two second nodes is allocated to the first node, based on the comparison, such that a combination of the portion of computational resources satisfy the SLA associated with the request.
