PS3GRID is a volunteer computing project based on the PlayStation3 and BOINC for full-atom molecular dynamics simulations and other scientific applications specially optimized for the Cell processor in your PlayStation3.
SHA-1 Collision Search
This is a research project that uses Internet-connected computers to do research in cryptanalysis. You can participate by downloading and running a free program on your computer.
ABC@home
ABC@home is a distributed computing project enabling a great search for so called abc-triples. The ABC conjecture is currently one of the greatest open problems in mathematics. If it is proven to be true, a lot of other open problems can be answered directly from it.
Cosmology@Home
The goal of Cosmology@Home is to search for the model that best describes our Universe and to find the range of models that agree with the available astronomical and particle physics data.
Leiden Classical
Join in and help to build a Desktop Computer Grid dedicated to general Classical Dynamics for any scientist or science student!
Einstein@Home
Einstein@Home is a program that uses your computer's idle time to search for spinning neutron stars (also called pulsars) using data from the LIGO and GEO gravitational wave detectors.
Enigma@Home
Enigma@Home is a wrapper between BOINC and Stefan Krah's M4 Project. The M4 Project is an effort to break 3 original Enigma messages with the help of distributed computing. The signals were intercepted in the North Atlantic in 1942 and are believed to be unbroken.
SZTAKI Desktop Grid
SZTAKI Desktop Grid currently searches for generalized binary number systems.
DepSpid - the dependency spider
DepSpid is a distributed type of a web crawler (like the ones used by search engines) and has two major goals:
1st: Build up a database containing the dependencies between individual web sites and groups of web sites.
2nd: Collect statistical data about the structure of the web.
Spinhenge@home
Spinhenge@home utilizes the available resources of computers. It is for scientific calculations of nano magnetic molecules.
Superlink@Technion
Superlink@Technion helps geneticists all over the world find disease-provoking genes causing some types of diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), cancer, schizophrenia and many others.
APS@Home
APS@home is a research project that uses Internet-connected computers to do research into the effects of atmospheric dispersion as it relates to the accuracy of measurements used in climate prediction.
Seasonal Attribution Project
Recent extreme weather events have prompted the debate about effects of human activity on the world's climate. We invite you to download and run high-resolution model simulations of the world's climate on your own computer. By comparing the results of these simulations, half of which will include the effects of human-induced climate change, and half of which will not, we will investigate the possible impact of human activity on extreme weather risk.
NanoHive@Home
The goal of NanoHive@Home is to perform large-scale nanosystems simulation and analysis that is otherwise too intensive to be calculated via normal means, and thereby enable further scientific study in the field of nanotechnology.
PrimeGrid
Prime Numbers are of great interest to mathematicians for a variety of reasons. Primes also play a central role in the cryptographic systems which are used for computer security. Through the study of Prime Numbers it can be shown how much processing is required to crack an encryption code and thus to determine whether current security schemes are sufficiently secure.
Rosetta@home
Rosetta@home needs your help to determine the 3-dimensional shapes of proteins in research that may ultimately lead to finding cures for some major human diseases. You will also be helping our efforts at designing new proteins to fight diseases such as HIV, Malaria, Cancer, and Alzheimer's.
QMC@HOME
Quantum Monte Carlo At Home (QMC@HOME) is a project designed to further develop the Quantum Monte Carlo method for general use in Quantum Chemistry.
Neuron
This project aims to provide a trial BOINC environment in which a set of dummy applications will run. The purpose of this being to record, observe and understand BOINC activity and data with a view to developing metrics that will establish or otherwise the quality/reliability/dependability of particular BOINC projects.

SIMAP - Similarity Matrix of Proteins
Today, protein sequence comparison is the most powerful tool in computational biology for characterizing protein sequences because of the enormous amount of information that is preserved throughout the evolutionary process. SIMAP is a public database of pre-calculated protein similarities that plays a key role in many bioinformatics methods. It contains about all currently published protein sequences and is continuously updated.

LinkToSpace is a part of the dutch Spacepage website. LinkToSpace is founded by Kris Christiaens in 2005 and contains many links to astronomy related websites. The website should be a guide for the people who are looking for good astronomic or spaceflight information with the possibilities for the user to give feedback on those websites.
