[spikey_richie]

Or to put it in few words

Zivis is a novel project that it tries to equip with power of calculation to the investigators through use of the computers of the citizens. It is a platform of voluntary computation with local emphasis, where as much the activities of recruitment of volunteers as those of spreading of the knowledge they are centered mainly in the city of Zaragoza.
The project will try to establish a distributed infrastructure stable of computers pertaining to the citizens and estates public whose use will be solely for investigation.

The City council of Zaragoza, for several years, has been maintaining a strong bet to approach the New Technologies the citizens. To put them to its reach causes that these feel simultaneously but interested that they become jumbled and they participate in its expansion.

For that reason, and in collaboration with the Institute of Biocomputación and FÃ*sica de Sistemas Complejos (BIFI) of the University of Zaragoza and the National Laboratory of Fusion of the CIEMAT, the project ZIVIS has started up, whose objective is the creation of a citizen platform of Super Computation based on the union of computer science equipment of the homes and Institutions you publish, to give service to the investigators of our city.
This network of computers, property of the citizens, will be able to execute calculations that individually would not be possible. Therefore, the success of this project is in the participation and generosity of all the citizens.
