It works, but what do we call it?
Can't just call it BOINC, because it controls more than just the SETI project. On the other hand, we can't call it SETI because the controlling program is BOINC.


The best idea I've seen so far is "s@h2".

Boinc is a support framework that looks set to support many DC projects. Hence, "s@h2" is a "Boinc project" which is all an example of "Distributed Computing".

(The original "s@h" is now often referred to as "s@h classic".)

Yes?

Martin
