Recently, not only servers computer but also computers for the individual is connected to the Internet. These computers are not always loaded. Therefore, there are many idle computer resources. We propose a system using computer resources only while they are idle. In other words, a task is given to a computer when its user leaves it. The task is processed while the computer is left idle. And the task is moved to another idle computers when the user is back and resumes the primary works. The system can process tasks using idle computer resources without hindering primary work. The system has functions of automatic load balancing, dynamic task migration, etc. We did experiments and evaluated these functions. As a result, it was confirmed that these functions worked suitably
