What is GridRepublic?

GridRepublic is a customized version of the BOINC software designed to simplify installation and participation by the average computer user.

The GridRepublic software upon installation attaches to the GridRepublic account manager to join and manage participation in BOINC volunteer computing projects, but is not required.

GridRepublic members run a screensaver that allows their computers to work on public-interest research projects when the machines are not otherwise in use. This screensaver does not affect performance of the host computer any more than an ordinary screensaver does.

By aggregating idle resources from users around the world, we create a massive supercomputer.
