This ( http://www.hpcwire.com/topic/middleware/In-Wa...ockets-700-116476438.html) was posted here ( http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=6389 ) first, but didn't think everyone would see it. If somebody else posted in another section of the forums already, I apologize. I didn't see it anywhere. This seems like a pretty nice sized donation that is much needed.

Great stuff, but whoever put that article together or was feeding information on the grid's performance was kind of running on 6 month old data:
* Receives * Has performed computations for the equivalent of * Has yielded 31 scientific, peer-reviewed published papers. * Performs computation for projects run by academic and research organizations on nearly every continent. * Consumes only three extra watts of power on the average computer -- less than half used by a seven-watt nightlight. * Performs 510 TeraFlops is the present 21 day mean. I'd be interested to see an updated list of those 31 papers. See 25, here http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/research/re...amp;sortBy=&pageNum=3 to include presentations. The malaria selection is interesting, just from this not clear if it's the research that Dr. Perryman was talking about as a future grid project. --//-- |
