Volunteer computing today
Participation 500K people, 1M computers 5 PetaFLOPS (100x cheaper than clusters)
Scientific impact molecular simulation climate modeling astronomy
Performance potential 1 ExaFLOP = 4M GPUs mobile devices: lowest watts/FLOPS
BOINC: middleware for volunteer computing client, server, web http://boinc.berkeley.edu

The volunteer computing ecosystem Goals:
give resources to important, productive projects large, dynamic set of projects scientifically informed public
Ideas: “mutual funds” (e.g., American Cancer
Society) futures market
