+High performance computing environments like MPI (Message Passing
+Interface) \cite{Gro94} are widely used and have proved their efficiency. This
+class of systems are very tightly coupled and powerful but not very error
+tolerant. Cluster computing environments like Condor
+\cite{condor-practice} and volunteer computing systems like BOINC \cite{boinc} are loosely coupled and
+have a scheduler that distributes tasks to computing nodes. Cluster
+computing environments assume that nodes are most often accessible
+which is not applies to volunteer computing systems.

 XtremWeb-CH (XWCH) is a volunteer computing inspired large-scale

-computing platform for distributed applications. It consists in three
-components: one coordinator, a set of workers and at least one
+computing platform for distributed applications. In fact, it tends to
+be a good compromise between cluster computing and volunteer
+computing.  It is originaly based on another platform called XtremWeb
+ \cite{xtremweb}. It is easy to install and maintain and it is supported by a Grid
+middleware (ARC \cite{arc}) and a workflow engine (JOpera \cite{JOpera}).  It consists in
+three components: one coordinator, a set of workers and at least one

 warehouse. Client programs use these components.
