Grid computing – The Painless Charity of The Amazing Secret Angels

view profile

The Amazing Secret Angels says:

The Amazing Secret Angels are a team of flickr photographers who donate the unused power on our computers to medical research.

World Community Grid
employs unused capacity on individual computers to process encrypted raw data then returns the results to a secure server. The software takes a back seat when you're using any application so there is no slowdown in performance - it only uses the resources that other programmes don't need.

It's straightforward to download and doesn't require you to do anything at all - a painless way to contribute to charity.

You can find out more from World Community Grid where you can join our team of flickr photographers 'The Amazing Secret Angels'.

Please come along and check out our flickr group The Painless Charity of the Amazing Secret Angels.

Thank you!
