Deadlineless projects for BOINC?

Are there any deadlineless projects for BOINC? More specifically from WCG?
I have machines that don't have internet connection or are not on 24/7.

Re: Deadlineless projects for BOINC?

There are no deadlineless jobs, particularly for those projects that don't trickle intermediate results up of a very large job or where a quorum is defined of 2 and greater. The 'shortest' deadline is 5 days and the longest is 11 days depending on the job done, thus depending on how frequent you connect you can make your choice.

WCG knows which devices do not connect regularly and thus are not considered for receiving 'rush' jobs.

The WCG deadlines are summarized in a Start Here forum FAQ "The WCG Projects, Systems Usage Matrix"
