Description
Your computer's power sits idle most of the time—why not put it to meaningful use? BOINC lets you donate idle compute to scientific projects—astronomy, protein folding, climate modeling, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence and more, computing quietly in the background without disrupting your work. Developed at Berkeley, free and open source, so even an ordinary PC can join frontier science.
Volunteer computing: donate idle power to global research projects.
Many projects: astronomy, medicine, climate, mathematics and more.
Background: uses only spare resources, no disruption.
Cross-platform: from Berkeley, free and open source.
