The analyses of the convoluted text.
The following explains about the weakness of the distributed computing.
The impacts of trust and availability on performance and development difficulty can influence the choice of whether to deploy onto a dedicated cluster, to idle machines internal to the developing organization, or to an open external network of volunteers or contractors. In many cases, the participating nodes must trust the central system not to abuse the access that is being granted, by interfering with the operation of other programs, mangling stored information, transmitting private data, or creating new security holes. Other systems employ measures to reduce the amount of trust “client” nodes must place in the central system such as placing applications in virtual machines.

1. I think the like of "PC" has been omitted after "deploy."
2. I think "to idle machines internal to the developing organization" is the inserted adverbial to-infinitive phrase.
3. I think "by" should have been used, not "such as."
I'd like to know whether or not my guesses are right.
Thank you in advance for your help.
