Abstract
The paper is devoted to the experimental comparison of performance and fault tolerance of software packages Pyramid, X-COM and BOINC. This paper contains the technique of carrying out the experiments and the results of these experiments. The performance comparison was carried out by assessing the overhead costs to arrange parallelization by data. In this case special tests simulating typical tasks of parallelization by data were designed by the authors. The comparison of fault tolerance was performed by simulating various emergency situations that arise during computations.
