Best distributed client for a..

Please join the DPAD project. it's a brand new project to TA and we are overtaking the teams in front of us FAST! we just need more pcs to do it..right now we have 6 members and going strong..

it is a very worthy project that will have real world effects..your PC could do some serious crunching for the team:

http://www.stephenbrooks.org/muon1/

in case there is some confusion here is how to set it up:

ok basically you take the original ZIP folder right....

unzip it to say your desktop....

now go into THAT unzipped folder (should be muon1v421b)

in the folder there will be various FIles....Right click on an empty space and Create a new Notepad file..

name it user.txt

go into user.txt and type in [TA]YOURNAMEGOESHERE
and your done..!!

run the muon1_background...

use the MANUAL_ send.exe (in that folder) to send your results every day or so

and welcome to the team 😉 i will post more after u get crunching
 
I think there is a position with your name on it, for Folding@Home. you would be a wonderfull addition to our team. ATM we are loosing ground to the leaders and we are droping down the ranks pretty quickly. we need some great folders to help us recover a little. Folding@home is benaficial to mankind, you could help save a life. just remember Folding@home team number 198.
😉
 
Yes, we could definitely use some help in F@H, because we've been dropping for some time, and the end isn't in sight. 🙁

Please check here for more info.
 
The Distributed Folding team could also use your help. We're trying to overtake the 4th place team but they keep on shifting in people from other projects for a week so that they can just keep out of range.
 
What is this ?!?

When somebody new has doubts on where to crunch, you guys seem like vampires...

Of course he is going to join DPAD 😉


LOL

Let me know if we need some help...

I believe the PC term is PIMP 😀

I'm running seti now just for the hell of it.
As long as your on the TeAm it doesn't matter 🙂

Or you could leave it right where it is 😀
 
Check out the thread at the top of the forum. All the projects are worthwhile just chose the one best suited to your wants.The Rebel Alliance is currently involved in four of them.
 
The reason they want to do this is that the neutrino is just about the most common particle in the universe (billions pass through your body every second) and if it has mass, this could cause the universe to eventually recollapse on itself. Knowing the mass will also allow scientists to make better models of how the universe began.

Actually the machine that's being built (costing at least $1.9bn) has several scientific aims. The neutrinos are used for fundamental physics experiments, but the proton beam that is produced at the start (this hits the target rod at the beginning of the simulation you download) also going to be used in experiments for neutralising radioactive waste by transmuting the radioactive elements into stable ones.

You are simulating the part of the process where the protons hit a target rod and cause pions to be emitted, which decay into muons, which then proceed to a storage ring and decay into electrons and neutrinos. This is a fairly critical part of the apparatus, which catches the pions and confines some of them into a beam while they decay into muons. The efficiency of this dictates that of the entire machine. If the R&D says it isn't efficient enough it may not get funded to be built, but users of this program have already doubled the estimated efficiency, so it probably will.


small project, plenty of room for movement upwards (we are going to overtage a few teams and hopefully break top 20..w/in a week? ), worthwhile investment 🙂

EITHER WAY..remember. choose something you believe is worth it and will benefit others (no offense but take the current rc-75 challenge or something. they predict the proper encryption key will be found in ~1000 years at current combined output..or something like that....honestly 😉 )

The difference between the efficiencies of various processors in different projects depends upon the computations that the projects are performing. Some projects are more inclined to use the higher memory bandwidth of the Pentium 4, while others perform more strongly on the Athlon XP (due to various reasons that I can not fully understand). Generally, SETI and SoB (what, it should be FoB by now, shouldn't it? 😉) are better on the P4, but Folding@Home, RC5-72, ECC2, and others are better on the Athlon XP.
