Berkeley has a new project called BOINC, the Berkeley Office of
Internet Networking Computation, which will release a general
application which will allow users to choose how much of their
machine's spare time goes to various different distributed computing
projects, be it seti, protein analysis, etc... So it will act like a
401k of computation. 25% for seti, 50% for protein folding, 25% for
prime searching, etc...Mike Lorrey
Cool! I will watch the GIMPS thruput and see if the
Berkeley teams have much impact. spike
