another sig test...thanks for the welcome again guys...AMD RULES
beer both the png and jpg are static. But every x seconds the whole image refreshes.
I didn't know a jpeg could do that.... I guess you learn something new everyday....
coespost has just joined us in Grid.
Welcome.
Welcome aboard coespost! :)
We really need some help on Grid to raise up a few hundreds (or thousands) of ranks.
Hay guys, I'm sure this has been gone over a thousand times before but....I like many of you don't want to waste my computers time on a project which will never really do "real" science. I would like your opinions on which DC project does the most real science and will do some real good for the world. Since my father died of cancer and I have a problem which can turn cancerous I would like to know which science project I can run that is doing real cancer research, and not just some BS...any ideas???
I can think of two right on top of my mind that are dealing with cancer, United Devices Grid and World Community Grid. (They are in someway linked together as far as I can tell...)
Not to discourage you, but it's hard to tell if the results of projects we run are or will be used for real scientific research, for now we can only hope so and wait and see after the projects are finished.
Welcome to the AMD Uers forum gyeager
Are you a budding AMD user?
Running Distributed Computing projects ?
Interested in finding out more about both ?
What brings you over to our green haven ?
:hello2:
Sorry for your loss BlackAdder. This touches many hearts every day. Whilst research goes on, it seems so slowly, over time progress has been made. But it is slow and that is where distributed computing does help.Quote:

They use the THINK engine which is behind some of the other more fancy lookin' GUIs run by some other projects. These guys and gals don't give 2 hoots about what the client looks like. They are in it for the research and the results; and yes there are real scientists on the other end building the study models and bookworming through the results. They have modules for other research teams as well. The client is available for both Windows and several variants of Linux.
Whilst I may recommend this project, I can't say that it will stop it from happening to those we have with us today. But in time it may help to slow it and reduce it. That's the best I hope for and would still be a great result.
If you need any assistance with the FAD client, just make a post in the forum. There are plenty of members capable of helping out.
