distributed.net believes in the capability and potential of
|
|
distributed computing. Their mission consists of three interdependent
|
|
goals: development, deployment, and advocacy, to be pursued in the
|
|
advancement of distributed computing.
|
|
|
|
They advocate distributed computing, by encouraging global
|
|
participation and contributions of processing power, bandwidth,
|
|
and expertise; by providing a forum for discussion; and by raising
|
|
awareness on the Internet and in the mainstream.

Current Project :
|
|
|
|
RC5-64: distributed.net's longest-running project is the RC5-64
|
|
challenge. They're now cracking at 127.24 billion keys per second
|
|
and are moving through the keyspace faster every day.
|
|
|
|
Optimal 24 Mark Golomb Rulers: Essentially, a Golomb Ruler is a
|
|
mathematical term given to a set of whole numbers where no two
|
|
pairs of numbers have the same difference. An Optimal Golomb Ruler
|
|
(OGR) is just like an everyday ruler, except that the marks are
|
|
placed so that no two pairs of marks measure the same distance.
|
|
OGR's have many uses in the real world. They're now testing at
|
|
182.49 billion nodes per second.
