 Donate computing power

BOINC lets you donate computing power to scientific research projects such as:

You can participate in more than one project, and you control the fraction of your computing power that goes to each project. If you participate in several projects, your computer will be kept busy even when one project has no work.

To participate: select projects, then download and run BOINC software, and enter the project's URL (to get the URL: visit the project's web site, and copy the URL from your browser's address field).
