Distributed Computing
[Distributedcomputing.info] Recentdistributed computing projects have been designed to use the computers ofhundreds of thousands of volunteers all over the world, via the Internet, tolook for extra-terrestrial radio signals, to look for prime numbers so largethat they have more than ten million digits, and to find more effectivedrugs to fight cancer and the AIDS virus. These projects are so large, andrequire so much computing power to solve, that they would be impossible forany one computer or person to solve in a reasonable amount of time.
