METHOD FOR PROCESSING A PREDETERMINED COMPUTING TASK BY A DISTRIBUTED, VEHICLE-BASED COMPUTING SYSTEM AND A CORRESPONDING COMPUTING SYSTEM

A method is provided for processing a predetermined computing task by a distributed, vehicle-based computing system. By a server device, the computing task is divided into several data packets with respective computing data for a respective part of the computing task. The method includes that at least one motor vehicle is determined, which currently is in a predetermined ready state, and, in case it is in the predetermined ready state, the server device transmits to the motor vehicle at least one of the data packets and the motor vehicle processes the respective computing data of the at least one transmitted data packet. The vehicle generates a respective computing result related to the data packet and transmits this computing result to the server device.
