I have note for "Bitcoin Mining Pools".. you can see
Starting to mine with a pool: You need to create an account on the pool's website, which is just like signing up for any other web service. Once you have an account, you'll need to create a ‘worker’. You can create multiple workers for each piece of mining hardware you’ll use. The default settings on most pools are for workers to be assigned a number as their name, and ‘x’ as their password, but you can change these to whatever you like.
