ECC2-109

ECC2-109 Challenge

This is a distributed computing project to solve the Certicom ECC2-109 challenge. In general it can be described as a whole lot of computers from all over the world, all of them working together in an attempt to have a collision. Each of the computers runs a program that computes DP (Distinguished Points) values. Each time a computer finds a DP, it is uploaded to a main server. The main server then checks to see if anyone has uploaded a matching DP (this is known as a collision). If a collision happens (two matching DP values exist), then the Certicom challenge is solved!
