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 Projects: RC5-72, and Optimal 25 Mark Golomb Rulers.
