This can be very dangerous, as Fred Hoyle has demonstrated in his "The Black Cloud" book of 1958, the best science fiction book ever written. Real time data can kill us humans.

Then why does not the SETI Institute port its SetiQuest to the BOINC platform, as IBM has done with its World Community Grid? In the BOINC home page there is an article referring to the IBM's port. Since you are so well informed, maybe you can enlighten me.

I said and I repeat that I cannot understand why the SETI Institute ignores the existence of SETI@home. Maybe you can explain it to me.

In Number Crunching there is a cruncher who owns a grid of 1400 computers and I believe this to be an example of Cloud Computing. He crunches SETI to keep his computers working even when he has no customers. He uses both the BOINC clients for Windows and Linux and the relevant SETI apps. So if a private company uses both BOINC and SETI in a grid connected by Infiniband, I don't see why the SETI Institute could not use the same approach and use a Cloud Computer running BOINC and SETI@home.
