Distributed computing projects
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
Distributed computing projects (or volunteer or grid computing) are projects that make use of the spare computing cycles of many volunteers' computers in order to do large-scale projects which would otherwise require expensive supercomputers. Various protocols and file formats are used to store and transfer the raw projects and their finished results.
