Would you like to help the scientific community in their search for cures of diseases, to study the effects of global warming, the exploration of space and the universe, and other important areas of research?

 

 

Boinc is a free downloadable program that lets you select which fields of research are of importance to you. Choose one project or choose several.  Boinc uses the idle time of your computer to help scientists, universities, and companies in compiling data for their research projects. 

 

 

The whole process is simple once you've set it up. Your selected project server(s) will send you executable and input files, your computer then computes and returns the completed tasks to the appropriate server(s) for the project administrators to analyze.

 

 

It's all automatic and the cycle runs repeatedly with no further action required of you! 

 

 

Boinc is always looking for people to join their volunteer computing project!
