Number crunchin' with BOINC
I donate computing power to scientific
research projects.
While I'm working in standard software (word, adobe, etc.) otherwise unused
memory
and processing power in the background completes calculations and returns results
to
these projects online.
This graphic shows my up-to-date credits for participation in various projects.
About these projects:
• SETI@home and BETA: Look for radio evidence of extraterrestrial life.
• Einstein@home: Search for
gravitational signals emitted by pulsars.
• Predictor@home: Investigate
protein-related diseases.
• Rosetta@home and RALPH: Help researchers
develop cures for human diseases.
• SIMAP: Support manifold biological research projects by calculating protein similarities.
• SZTAKI Desktop Grid: Aid in searching for generalized binary number systems.
• WCG World Community Grid:
Help advance our knowledge of human disease.
• CPDN Climateprediction.net: Models climate change.
• APS@home: Models climate change.
• MilkyWay@home: Models the evolution of our galaxy.
All of these shared computing projects operate with BOINC software.
