Welcome To FaDBeens

Welcome to FaDBeens. We are a group of people who used to run our computers on a distributed-computing project called Find a Drug (hence FaDBeens). Find a Drug shut down, so we're now running lots of different projects, under one team, FaDBeens.

So what is Distributed Computing?

Distributed Computing is when you run a programme on your machine, that downloads work from the internet, uses its spare and normally wasted processor time to perform some task. Go to the Projects page for a description of each project, which the FaDBeens are actively participating in. For a comprehensive list of other projects, visit the Distributed Computing Info Site.

Can I join?

Yes, of course! If you need any help working out how to download and run one of the projects, go on the forums. We'd love to meet you!
