Distributed computing projects

From TASBot Wiki

TASers have been involved in a couple of distributed/volunteer computing projects:

I donated gazillions of CPU-hours to Science and all I got was this lousy certificate

The main one is Folding@home, a citizen science initiative for biochemistry research. TheMas set up a 'team' for the Folding@home leaderboards; as of 2023 the TASBot team's members had collectively processed 50,000 'work units' worth 3,000,000,000 points in total.


TASers of GC Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door launched a distributed project, dubbed Recipes@Home in homage to F@h, to optimise some routing for the 100% TAS of the game. The programming and organisation was done by Cubik, SevenChords, Amphitryon, Malleo, and Lego. This video on Malleo's channel explains the problem and the search algorithm.
