ABSTRACT:
A system for licensing a computational component in a distributed processing network is provided. The system includes a licensing provider100that is spatially remote from the computational component154and is operable to: (a) assign a private and public key pair to the computational component154; (b) create a digital certificate308for the computational component154, the digital certificate308being signed with a private key of the licensing provider100, the licensing provider's private key being different from the computational component's private key312; (c) create a license file176to be installed on the computational component; and (d) transmit the license file176and the computational component's signed digital certificate308and private key312to the computational component154.
