Does W2S have a ???

Does warp2search have a seti team? Does anyone give damn? We could put the old overclockers whoop-ass on Team AnandTech. That would be cool.

humm.... I run folding@home sometimes... and my team name is kyronics and team number is 13123 .

dont believe in seti that much so dont run it.

Warp2search Team sounds Good.. Degger Rancho, what do u think?

i ran seti for some time as part of the matroxusers group, then Folding@home as part of Rage3D.
no i do neither, but i believe most in Folding cause the result is actually usefull.

i mean, you may find a signal from space with seti, but you cant actually use it to anything, its just there. however with folding, deceases can be cured (or helped in the direction of a cure).

Sounds good, but we are not informed how it works and how to create a Warp2Search Seti Team.

Can you provide us with more informations how it works ? We have checked the Seti homepage but we did not found informations about it.

Please provide us with more details and if you are interested in and we have no problem to start the project.

Best
Niels

Most of the SETI programs in existence today, including those at UC Berkeley build large computers that analyze that data from the telescope in real time. None of these computers look very deeply at the data for weak signals nor do they look for a large class of signal types (which we'll discuss further on...) The reason for this is because they are limited by the amount of computer power available for data analysis. To tease out the weakest signals, a great amount of computer power is necessary. It would take a monstrous supercomputer to get the job done. SETI programs could never afford to build or buy that computing power. There is a trade-off that they can make. Rather than a huge computer to do the job, they could use a smaller computer but just take longer to do it. But then there would be lots of data piling up. What if they used LOTS of small computers, all working simultaneously on different parts of the analysis? Where can the SETI team possibly find thousands of computers they'd need to analyze the data continuously streaming from Arecibo?
The UC Berkeley SETI team has discovered that there are already thousands of computers that might be available for use. Most of these computers sit around most of the time with toasters flying across their screens accomplishing absolutely nothing and wasting electricity to boot. This is where SETI@home (and you!) come into the picture. The SETI@home project hopes to convince you to allow us to borrow your computer when you aren't using it and to help us "…search out new life and new civilizations." We'll do this with a screen saver that can go get a chunk of data from us over the internet, analyze that data, and then report the results back to us. When you need your computer back, our screen saver instantly gets out of the way and only continues it's analysis when you are finished with your work.

It's an interesting and difficult task. There's so much data to analyze that it seems impossible! Fortunately, the data analysis task can be easily broken up into little pieces that can all be worked on separately and in parallel. None of the pieces depends on the other pieces. Also, there is only a finite amount of sky that can be seen from Arecibo. In the next two years the entire sky as seen from the telescope will be scanned three times. We feel that this will be enough for this project. By the time we've looked at the sky three times, there will be new telescopes, new experiments, and new approaches to SETI. We hope that you will be able to participate in them too!

But I think what he was asking if we had a seti team like a
seti@warp2 for over clocking or something!

Im confused! we need more info!

I was just asking if you had a team at all. I didnt mean to sound exclusive to seti either. I also run united devices which i think worls similar to folding@home in that it analyzes protiens. I just recently started doing the distibuted computing thing and I like the fact that my computers now have a new purpose, and in the case of folding or united devices, a good one. I've got the machine in my sig below and a 800mhz celie on my home network...so I have been donating a good bit of cpu power. While visiting AnandTech's site there is info on there distributed computing team all over the place, and they seem to work on many different distributed tasks including the 3 I have mentioned. So while looking at their stuff, I asked myself "I wonder if my favorite site has a team?" I would definitely join.
