| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I believe that scientific research is in the truest pursuit of God. The universe and our existence is a mysterious and wonderful event that we should continue to explore with intensity.
I run SETI@home because I believe that life exists beyond our solar system and we should seek it out for a variety of reasons.
I hope for the sake of the project that it gets a redesign to incorporate multiple core CPU's and GPU's more effectively.I would love to see it also enable parallel computing amongst multiple GPU cards and distributed even amongst a home network. My hope is to build multiple systems that I can run the SETI@home project on, in order to complete more work.
If the code base was enhanced to take advantage of CUDA and OpenCL I believe the speed that data can be parsed would increase.
On an aesthetic front I would love toe see some upgrades to the screensaver. It tickles me pink to see the streaming data being processed by my computer, but the bouncing 3D cubic space could be updated… and the watermark should not hangout so long. LCD's aren't immune to screen burn either. If I were a better programmer I would seek out the resources to design and build a better screen saver — that being said, if there is a programmer out there would like to work on that with me, let's get in touch! |
