I would be interested in static source code analysis for applications that I can donate computing resources to. Do you know which projects provide direct and free access to source files of their software? Would you like to inspect them a bit more so that it can be checked if they will be executed smoothly and safely (in the background)? |

Einstein: http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/license.php Seti: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/sah_porting.php (when they're back from maintenance). Milkyway: http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/download/src/ Leiden Classical: http://boinc.gorlaeus.net/download/DownLoads/Classical/ Yoyo@Home: http://www.rechenkraft.net/yoyo/download/download/ Normally, the source code can be found from their front page, or a sub-menu about the project. There's of course lots of projects that don't do this, or whose code is proprietary. Ask in their forums, if need be. BOINC its source code can be found at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/browser; to download it, see instructions at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/SourceCode. |

Thanks for your links. There's of course lots of projects that don't do this, or whose code is proprietary. Ask in their forums, if need be. I hope that this situation can be improved. Would you like to help in the clarification of corresponding open issues? BOINC its source code can be found at [...] I know its easy availability as I reported also a few bugs for this software interface. ;-) |
