[x] Please opt me in to new projects as they become available.

If this box is checked, the new project will become part of your project mix and ADD TO what is already there. It will not take over.

To keep total control over what you are doing, uncheck this box and nothing in your project mix will change when a new project starts. Just be sure that what you are computing has work if you are running only one project.

Hello piero.magnani and Welcome to the WCG forum.It isn't that simple as it may look like. There are a number of things that go into the equation as to make 'new projects' as not equal to 'could have problems completing existing projects'. The realm includes Project-Management, commonalities in research domains, and projected increase in computing-power density, among others. To a volunteer, well, we simply crunch, crunch, crunch.

P.S:
There is also this notion that research is always a work-in-progress, and never truly completes but only lays the foundation for further research.

One thing alot of us do is pick projects that are of interest to us or those we know, for instance I like snails so I ran the Say No to Schistosoma project for awhile. I also know people who have had cancer etc so have run all the other projects here at WCG too! But I ran them one at a time until I got to where I felt I had done enough then moved to the next one. In short don't try and run ALL the projects at the same time, pick one or two that interests you and stick with it until you feel the need to move on. Rome was not built in a day, none of these projects will conquer their disease today either! It takes a lot of research and then more research based on those results etc, etc. Don't get me wrong, EVERY pc that helps is one step closer to the answer, but it will take alot of those steps to get there. This is a marathon not a sprint! Welcome to Boinc and above all keep on crunching!

The search for ever-better bandages goes on alongside CEP2 and it is CEP (1, and 2) that does not deliver on the promise to do something about the guy who keep stabbing people. And even if CEP catches the bad guy, people will continue to demand that someone make better bandages. Nonetheless, if only CEP can compete on the grid in terms of grid-efficiency and grid-performance, say compared with the likes of VINA-based projects, then CEP may have a chance to take-off.

Hi, tomast:

We all contribute what we can. If everyone with a PC/Mac gave a little each month, many research projects would be much further ahead, or even finished. But, hey, that's not happening: just do whatever you can. Congratulations to all contributing to the research!
