Reviewer 1: Title is misleading #32

Closed mariosky closed 8 years ago

The title “Volunteers in the Clouds: an Architecture for Low Cost and Potentially Massive Distributed Evolutionary Computation” seems to suggest that the volunteers run in the cloud, but that is not the case: the server run in the cloud and the volunteers do in the browsers of common PCs and laptops.

I suggest to remove “Volunteers in the Clouds:" from the title, and maybe change it by "Volunteer computing based on" : "Volunteer Computing based on an Architecture for Low Cost and Potentially Massive Distributed Evolutionary Computation”

The word massive in the title is giving us problems. Why not change it to something about sharing resources?. Also lets not forget about volunteers, they can be a resource too and they cannot be replaced by any super computer

I propose something like: A Web Based Architecture to Harness Volunteer Computational Resources for Low Cost Distributed Evolutionary Computation

Some keywords that can also be included in title: Asynchronous, Pool-Based, Javascript-Based, Open Source software.

Lets not forget this issue is about software.

I like this title. Much more descriptive of the paper contents.
