Hanan Cohen points us to DIMES (Distributed IUnternet Measurements and Simulations), a distributed project similar to SETI@home that runs on your machine during slow times, pinging sites and reporting what it finds back to a central server: “What we ask is not so much your CPU or bandwidth (which we hardly consume), but rather, your location.” It’s a project of Evergrow, a consortium of 20 universities.
