ajithsrn Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Here is a project that gives us an opportunity to contribute the idle/extra processing power of our computers for global good. It is a distributed computing project known as World Community Grid. Wikipedia has this to say about World Community Grid: "World Community Grid (WCG) is an effort to create the world's largest public computing grid to tackle scientific research projects that benefit humanity... Using the idle time of computers around the world, World Community Grid's research projects have analyzed aspects of the human genome, HIV, dengue, muscular dystrophy, and cancer. The organization has so far partnered with nearly 400 other companies and organizations to assist in the work and has over 410,000 registered user accounts." Details of how you can volunteer your computer for global good can be found at the website of World Community grid which is worldcommunitygrid.org Thankyou. Have a nice day.
