BOINC: compute for science

BOINC logo

BOINC is a program that lets you donate your idle computer time to science projects like SETI@home, Climateprediction.net, Rosetta@home, World Community Grid, and many others. After installing BOINC on your computer, you can connect it to as many of these projects as you like.

You may run this software on a computer only if you own the computer or have the permission of its owner.

We recommend that you also install VirtualBox , so your computer can work on science projects that require it. Learn more about VirtualBox.
