BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing) is a volunteer
project to have regular citizens help with their compute power to address
large scientific challenges. To contribute, please see the home pages
of the BOINC project for details and follow the links to the respecitve
page of the scientific project.
.
This package provides an executable for the Binary Pulsar Search
subproject of the Einstein@Home project. Regular users would
auto-download that executable via the BOINC-Client application or
the BOINC-Manager. This package provides the equivalent binary but
compiled on the Debian build demons. As such it is available to many
more platforms than what could possibly be provided by the scientists
themselves. Also, recompiling the package is likely to yield an
executable well-optimized for the local machine that outperformes
the official executable.
.
Quite some also run the Debian-provided packages for security concerns.
They already decided to trust the Debian community and appreciated
that executable to ship with an inspectable source tree.
