Distributed Computing enables even your home computer to be utilized in complex and processing intensive research such as climatology, astronomy and the search for new pharmaceutical drugs.
In order to participate in the fascinating world of Distributed Computing and make use of your computers idle time and thus, unused computing performance (power), you simply have to install a software on your computer, which accomplishes the scientific computations. There are even projects that actively involve you — much like computer games — in order to analyze scientific data.
