It looks like Nathan was interested in building a Beowulf cluster from a long time ago, too. I'm looking forward to a possible collaboration for IHIQS. Meanwhile, I've been contributing to microfluidics on BOINC... http://www.ufluids.net/team_members.php?teamid=78&offset=0&sort_by=expavg_credit
Everyone's doing folding@home, but I find microfluidics really cool, having done a project on fluid dynamics myself. There're many unexplored applications - microbubbling, for instance, as my previous research touched on, is difficult to predict but can be used for effective and environmentally friendly cleaning techniques. Ultrasound cleaning (if you've washed your spectacles at an optician's) relies on this too. The Japanese are ahead in this area of research, apparently (you get a lot of these in the Japanese Journal of Applied Physics)... very neat. Same as how I thought I had a novel idea, only to discover last night that RF lab has been developing it: Sayaka capsule. I was thinking of using copper resonance for the energy transfer though - oscillating a magnetic field over the abdomen seems like a troublesome thing.
I need to see what I can do to reuse my 2.8ghz P4. It's still in good condition.
And maybe I should focus one of my projects rather than all of them at the same time... my curiosity prods me at too many directions and too many things at the same time ;_;
