Why DENIS?

Posted 22 Apr 2024 by owlcool Post: I'm admittedly fairly new to BOINC and have been trying out a variety of projects. After Rosetta@Home went offline, I wasn't receiving much work from World Community Grid (Only Mapping Cancer Markers tasks despite my trying to focus on an Africa Rainfall Forecasting project), and didn't get anything else from LHC@Home or climateprediction.net besides a single task which should be done in 60 days, I decided to set up a poll in an internet friends group where I asked which of the following BOINC projects I should try between Asteroids@Home, DENIS@Home, Einstein@Home, Milkyway@Home, and Ramanujan Machine. I got a single vote for DENIS@Home from my best friend, and they went on to tell me how they have a family history of heart conditions and even went into cardiac arrest, prompting me to immediately try it. Unfortunately, DENIS@Home was apparently offline at the moment, but I promised to try it out later. Now here I am, 30 minutes into my first 17 DENIS@Home tasks. This seems very neat to say the least, but I'll reserve judgement for after those tasks are finished. |
