By ad-hoc I mean that new Pi's that join the network may add their resources into it. Maybe a cluster is not the best solution so any input will be appreciated
There's a really cool project from the University of Southampton, where a 64-node pi cluster was built.

If you mean more of a distributed network, where the pis are not all in one place, I would recommend looking into the source or techniques employed by projects like Folding@Home. That project is open source, and there are other similar projects that may be good resources for this kind of project.

I've been gathering a few resources here:

Also a Google search returns a lot:
