Volunteer hive computing and virtualization in Botswana's web based edification techniques

Abstract

Hive computing has gone by many names and has been used for various applications from simple business to complex scientific problems, over the years. In the modern world, Hive Computing and Virtualization have been put in use to accomplish various tasks [1]. The benefit of using the Virtualization technique is that it allows creation of a virtual version like a virtual hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or network resources which is quite compatible with hive computing. Hive computing involves task split-up that can be resolved by a loose federation of resources. The applications deployed under this architecture provide content sharing which enable users to serve content off their personal hard-drives and share files with others, thus representing a growing trend of decentralized content and control. In Botswana, progress in education is taken to be essential for sustainable development, environmental protection, improvement in maternal and child health and participation in democratic social and political processes. Education is also currently becoming the most important contributor to national economic growth of the Nation[2]. The Government is striving by all means to make quality education available to all in the country. This paper discusses the best practices of volunteer hive computing and virtualization techniques that can be applied not only to enhance edification approaches but also to achieve financial viability with other benefits. Furthermore the recommendations will certainly aid the relevant stakeholders to deploy this in the years to come.
