Greetings everybody, after several weeks of thinking and days of hearing "Are you insane? It is not possible!" I decided to create demo of mobile version of BOINC - i.e. BOINC for Mobile Java - J2ME / MIDP2.0+. And here it is for test. For start I have one very important thing - this is JUST A DEMO, NOT working software, so it now neither supports actuall projects, nor it operates with your BOINC accounts! It just presents idea of mobile BOINC.
Program currently has 2 tests: Searching for highest prime number up to 10.000 + DNA Comparator comparing random DNA amino acids with another piece of random DNA. For example it looks for "TACGT" or "AAGCT" and then tells how many times is sub-DNA in whole DNA chain. Especially DNA Comparator may seem slow on start. That is because of the random generation of DNA, so please be patient. Working with DNA is faster than its generation - you will notice growing blue bar indicating progress. Yet some info for MBOINC: 1. DO NOT hit the Start button repeatedly, because program starts next long counting right after finishing this one. 2. Unit can not be cancelled, so you may return to Main Menu only after completation of whole unit. If you like idea, you may post your score with both tests. With my Nokia E60 (220 MHz CPU) I got 215175 miliseconds for primes and 344278 miliseconds for DNA Comparator. This btw. means even my ONLY phone is capable of comparing cca 2.500.000 amino acids of DNA per day! Imagine what could be done with 1.500.000.000 of phones on world today running with speed of 50-400 MHz usually! That is almost 75.000.000.000 - 600.000.000.000 MHz each day wasted without any yield for mankind... I am looking for ANY help anybody wish and could provide - primarily of course money donation, so I may work on MBOINC as full-time programmer, people intereted in developing of mobile versions of projects etc. But of course - I welcome also other ideas, proposals and cooperation offers! Even if MBOINC return only ONE unit of completed science or medical work, I would consider its existence success...
