Saletelligence donates computing power for the Folding@home project<\/h2>\n

We at SALETELLIGENCE have decided to donate a part of our computing power, which we normally use for our analyses and statistical models, to the Folding@home project<\/a>. This way we make an important contribution to the increase of scientific knowledge about COVID19 and other diseases (Alzheimer’s, cancer, Parkinson’s, etc.).<\/p>\n

The Folding@home project uses the unused computing power of various computers worldwide to simulate protein folding. Existing scientific calculations and simulations are broken down into subtasks and then processed on different computers. The computing power generated in this way far surpasses the fastest supercomputers in the world:<\/p>\n

\n

With our
\ncollective power, we are now at ~2.4 exaFLOPS (faster than the top 500
\nsupercomputers combined)! We complement supercomputers like IBM Summit,
\nwhich runs short calculations using 1000s of GPUs at once, by spreading
\nlonger calculations around the world in smaller chunks! pic.twitter.com\/fdUaXOcdFJ<\/a><\/p>\n
