Folding@Home Project From The website: "Folding@Home is a distributed computing project -- people from through out the world download and run software to band together to make one of the largest supercomputers in the world. Every computer makes the project closer to our goals. Folding@Home uses novel computational methods coupled to distributed computing, to simulate problems thousands to millions of times more challenging than previously achieved. " There are links for Windows OS (Most of you will use this) MAC (Some of you will use this) and Linux (I will use this..not sure of anyone else.) If you've got a multi-core system, this is a great thing to do for humanity; there is even an application for those of you out there with quad core machines. |

Don't forget about the PlayStation 3! Owners of this (maybe) revolutionary console can donate unused processor power from their Cell processors to the Folding@Home project. |

It would wind up having, like, two active members, and they would have about 60 people's worth of output. | |||||

I've been thinking (at Poss' suggestion) about setting up an '@home' project for neuron simulation. It'd be nice to have a decentralized supercomputer to throw a few uploaded invertebrates into. Really though, if your looking for one, there are a lot. SETI has one, if I'm not mistaken. |

Distributed neural nets are a very interesting subject - care to make a topic about it? | |||||
