Distributed Computing I signed up to the BBC's experiment in Climate Prediction which is part of a wider experiment run by climateprediction.net∞. They are using the boinc architecture to run a distributed computing project that aims to use the Met Office climate model to run many unique versions of the world (from the year 1920 onwards). The initial conditions of your models vary but the progress of each may be vastly different due to the often quoted 'butterfly effect'. My little bit is slowly contributing both in computing power and (ironically) to global warming. I would have left my computer running anyway so it's not too bad (though with the cpu throttled down when idle. Well the really fascinating bit is Boincstats∞ Where you can follow the progress of your little bit of a globalcomputing network involved in many other projects, go on just try it.
