Pessoal, vamos usar este tópico para nos mantermos a par de novos projectos que vão aparecendo. Como eu, devem haver outros que vêm ao fórum mais vezes do que ao BOINC Stats ou outros sites que indicam projectos mais recentes. Sendo assim:
Moo! Wrapper ( http://moowrap.net/index.php )
Ideologias@Home ( http://falua.cesfelipesegundo.com/Ideologias/index.php )
OPTIMA@HOME ( http://boinc.isa.ru/dcsdg/index.php )
Moo! Wrapper ( http://moowrap.net/index.php )
Moo! Wrapper brings together BOINC volunteer computing network resources and the Distributed.net projects. It allows a BOINC Client to participate in the RC5-72 challenge.
If you want to learn more about Distributed.net Project and Client, please visit their website. Especially, detailed information about the RC5-72 challenge is available.
Note that we have intentionally left Distributed.net OGR-project out of scope since you can already join that project at Yoyo@Home.
Ideologias@Home ( http://falua.cesfelipesegundo.com/Ideologias/index.php )
The aim of the project Ideologias@Home is to study how people in a certain region evolve ideologically over time with respect to an idea. When an idea is introduced in a society, the population is divided naturally into four groups:
People change their minds because of peer pressure, the influence of mass media or because because they come to a different conclusion of their own accord. Under this assumption, we propose dynamic models, determine the parameters, predict trends and analyse results.
- Extremists: those who defend the idea extremely.
- Moderates: those who defend the idea moderately.
- Opponents: those who are against the idea.
- Abstentionists: those who do not care, abstain or have not opinion.
OPTIMA@HOME ( http://boinc.isa.ru/dcsdg/index.php )
OPTIMA@HOME is a research project that uses Internet-connected computers to solve challenging large-scale optimization problems. The goal of optimization is to find a minimum (or maximum) for a given function. This topic is perfectly explained in the Internet. See for example excellent explanation by Arnold Newumaier. Many practical problems are reduced to the global optimization problems. At the moment this project runs an application that is aimed at solving molecular conformation problem. This is a very challenging global optimization problem consisting in finding the atomic cluster structure that has the minimal possible potential energy. Such structures plays an important role in understanding the nature of different materials, chemical reactions and other fields. The details about the problem can be found here. You can participate by downloading and running a free program on your computer.
