Managed network resource sharing and optimization method and apparatus

摘要

A digital community provides shared resources across a wide collection of users. Users donate resources to the community and in return are allowed to employ resources of the community. The digital community conforms to a set of rules, or community rules, so as to enhance cooperation between users and increase resource reliability. The resource sharing rules allow for efficient allocation and utilization of community resources. The rules refer to the hardware, software, and donor behavior associated with each resource of the community.
