Folding@home: Lessons from eight years of volunteer distributed computing
Accurate simulation of biophysical processes requires vast computing resources. Folding@home is a distributed computing system first released in 2000 to provide such resources needed to simulate protein folding and other biomolecular phenomena. Now operating in the range of 5 PetaFLOPS sustained, it...

| description | Accurate simulation of biophysical processes requires vast computing resources. Folding@home is a distributed computing system first released in 2000 to provide such resources needed to simulate protein folding and other biomolecular phenomena. Now operating in the range of 5 PetaFLOPS sustained, it provides more computing power than can typically be gathered and operated locally due to cost, physical space, and electrical/cooling load. This paper describes the architecture and operation of Folding@home, along with some lessons learned over the lifetime of the project. |
