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.
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.
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.
climateprediction.net gateway
The climateprediction.net project comprises three separate experiments - one to explore the model we are using, the second to see how well the models replicate past climate and the third to finally produce a forecast for 21st century climate.
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.
Leiden Classical
Join in and help to build a Desktop Computer Grid dedicated to general Classical Dynamics for any scientist or science student!
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.
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.
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.
BOINC.BE Forums
Come talk to BOINC.BE members. We have many experienced people, who can help out with questions about BOINC or about software and hardware in general.
Getting help with BOINC
BOINC Online Help lets you talk one-on-one with experienced BOINC users, who can:
- answer questions about BOINC and volunteer computing;
- walk you through the process of installing and using BOINC;
- troubleshoot any problems you might have.
BOINC Online Help is based on Skype, an Internet-based telephone system. Skype is free (both the software and the calls).
PS3GRID
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.
Spinhenge@home
Spinhenge@home utilizes the available resources of computers. It is for scientific calculations of nano magnetic molecules.
Seti@Home optimized science apps
Here you can download platform specific optinized versions of the Seti@Home optimized science apps.
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.
malariacontrol.net
The malariacontrol.net project is an application that makes use of network computing for stochastic modelling of the clinical epidemiology and natural history of Plasmodium falciparum malaria.
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.
RieselSieve
Riesel Sieve is a distributed effort to prove the Riesel conjecture by removing prime candidates for the remaining 68 K from over 11 million k/n pairs.
BURP
BURP aims to develop a publicly distributed system for rendering 3D animations.

BOINC Stats Counters by Neil Munday
I created this site for the many thousands of BOINC crunchers around the world. The site basically retrieves your stats from your BOINC project's site to create a graphic that displays your stats. The service uses a caching system to ensure your stats are always available.
Formula Boinc
A kind of ranking of the different BOINC teams with the Credits they have gatered in the current year (2008).
With this there is no advantage for teams witch are already working for years.
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.
