I strongly believe the power of volunteer computing project will revolutionize science and technology. That is why I spend all my free time learning and developing a project that attempts to engineer clean energy technology. My work attempts to identify efficient catalysts in hydrogen production using Quantum Monte Carlo and Docking simulations.
There is a great deal of developement ahead of me and I work on it with a shoe string budget since it is a hobby. Thanks to the friendly community I am actually making progress, slowly but surely.
There are really many more computational problems than projects currently available. Anyone with a little imagination, strong science background and experience developing webservers can start their own!
I may think Hydrogen is the best approach to developing clean alternatives. You might think that is a bad idea and have an idea about engineer celluostic ethanol. I would applaud that because in the end of the day Society needs the best solution to Global Climate change.
I hope I have inspired people to participate in BOINC. May our community continue growing. Through Meetup.com I started a group that meets in Washington DC to discuss and promote BOINC.
Kind Regards,
