The Digital Workload

It’s easy to save power by letting your computer take a nap, but you can learn the true meaning of multitasking by using its power to work on something while you’re working on something. Your machine can save people by helping cure diseases like Alzheimer’s and Cancer or by fighting AIDS. Distributed computing takes advantage of the unused processing power of many computers to calculate very small pieces of a larger problem, making it possible to complete research in months, rather than years. It will never slow your computer down, and it only takes a few minutes to sign up.
