     105== Replication policy == 
     106 
     107An application's '''replication policy''' decides when additional instances 
     108of jobs are needed. 
     109Examples: 
     110 * Get at least N finished instances of each job. 
     111 * Based on the responses and skill levels of the volunteers who have completed instances, decide whether the error probability is below a given threshold. 
     112 
     113An application's replication policy is embodied in its '''job_finished()''', 
     114a callback function that is called when an instance is finished. 
     115Using the Bossa API, this function can get the set of other instances 
     116and their associated users, 
     117and can decide whether new instances are needed, 
     118and if so, the priority.
