Hey everyone, I used to be a bigger participant in the area of the forums back when AT was big in RC-5, but I sort of got bored of it for three reasons, the first, Georgia vs. McOwen (that really sour'ed me), then there was the terrible and overbearing moderation here, and lastly, my access to noticable computer power was very limited. (I still keep my systems chuggin, but thats about it)..
Anyway, enough background. I've always been big into the idea of distributed computing, and the idea that so many computers are not being utilized to their full potential always tweaks me 😀 So I figured I would flex my knowlege and utilize my free time by creating an article that starts at the basics of Distributed Computing, and work its way forward. What I would also like to do is provide a very complete list of the projects running, such as SETI@Home, ORG-25, Folding@home and so on. Also with this list, I would like to provide more details about each individual project, like what they look at, what are the benefits of that, so on and so fourth (something like a page long or longer article). Since I am not knowlegable enough on each individual project, I was wondering if there are some that would like to chip in their intelligence. ie. If your very active in a particular project and would like to write an article to be included, that would be great!
I'd also like a few people who are very knowlegable to proof read my 'final' product. I hate distributing false information 😀.
Post in here if your interested! and call your topic so we dont have two people doing the same thing (or you and another can collaborate).
If this has already been done somewhere else, great, provide a link so I can have a peek, but I still wanna make my own! Thanks! 😀 😀
(this is not a school, or work assignment. this is just for fun)
