you are Saying what?????

Stanford has a distrubuted computing project Called Folding @ home.
Full info on what it is and what they are trying to accomplish can be found here
http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandeg...g/science.html



Here is info on our Team
http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=344115


Our goal for a year now has been to pass the Mustangworld team, We are geting close but have not overtaken them just yet.




And help from the users here sure would be nice







To get the program go here

Use the Team # of 39215
And make up any User name you want. Or Add _Mazda3 to the name and we will know that you are from this forum.


That is all there is to it.

 

Eh...and this does what for me?

 

In a nut shell it is hoped that this will help cure cancer.


And that there are more Mazda nerds then mustang nerds.

The Supra guys want to challange us but they have not gotten their numbers high enough yet.

 

Im lost..
are these groups having a number of people war or something?
besides...the supra ppl would run out b/c they dont have enough cars...hahaha

 

What is going on is that each person and team use there computers to do work for stanford. For the work you are given points, The points add up per user name and per team. So a team can be 3 but they have 400 computers working or 3 people with 3 computers. I currently have 31 computers working for me.

We are trying to pass the mustangclub in points, making the mazda group the highest ranked car group in the project.

 

This reminds me of those math lessons in the book that confuse me that I dont do..lol!

 

It can be hard to understand but that does not stop us from doing it.

 

I'm not sure if this is what I'm thinking it is, but I'll explain it as best I can.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is basically a project that uses personal computers to do computing work for Stanford. SETI had a similair program (possibly still does) where they would send you a block of raw information, and whenever your computer went idle, it would proccess the info, send that block back, and the system would automatically send you new raw data.

 

That is correct, It is some what like SETI.

They call the data blocks "Work Units" and you get XX points per work unit.

 

noone here wants to help?

 

Thanks to Joshua for helping out.

 

no prob

 

We have two month before we take out the mustang club.

Any help would be great.

 

We are getting close but still need new people. Please help out the mazda's and help us pass the Mustang's.

 

Thanks to the new guys for the help
