Pirates@home

Introduction
AAARGH! Welcome, mates, to Pirates@Home!

Pirates@Home is an ongoing test of BOINC, the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing. Pirates@Home is not doing any real scientific computation. Our goal is to provide a testbed for new projects and features. (BOINC is the software platform used by GridRepublic.)

Please note that Pirates@Home is always under development; please don't expect it to work all the time.

Science

[The Science section might (or might not) be divided into two parts: {1} general discussion of the field, and then {2} a discussion of the project's specific endeavor. For instance, in LHC@home, we might have {1} "Science of the Large Hardon Collider" and then {2} "Science of LHC@home"

The above is desirable, because in most cases, the field of research is really fascinating, and presenting this in broad terms-- outlining the big questions-- can make it easier to understand the particulars of the project and why it is important.]


Results

[Where known, we should attempt to keep track of each project's publications. A good list to draw from is here. ]


Links of Interest

[Why recreate the wheel; there are lots of great sources out there.; a good list of sources can be really useful to the reader.]


Project In the Classroom

[For each project, please add a "[Projectname] in the Classroom" section-- with a link to Volunteer Computing In the Classroom and an article named "[Projectname] in the Classroom". (Then please add "[Projectname] in the Classroom" to the list on the main Education page.)]
