Desktop Grids have emerged as an important methodology to harness the idle cycles of millions of participant desktop PCs over the Internet However to effectively utilize the resources of a Desktop Grid it is necessary to use scheduling policies suitable for such systems In this paper we analyze the performance of a policy which is shown to perform well in highly heterogeneous Desktop Grids The policy utilizes
