BOINC Projects
The most comprehensive encyclopedia of BOINC volunteer computing projects on the web

What is a BOINC project? A BOINC project is a website and associated server set up by an individual or group to distribute applications to BOINC volunteer computing devices. Those devices deliberately attach to receive, process, and return results for further scientific research — at no cost to the researcher, and no cost to the volunteer beyond electricity.
BOINC stands for Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing, developed at the University of California, Berkeley. Any researcher can create a BOINC project; any person can donate their idle CPU or GPU time to one.
📋 The BOINC Projects Master Table
The List of all BOINC projects table is the heart of this wiki — a structured, sortable reference covering project name, research field, institution, supported platforms, active status, GPU support, and more. It is the primary reason this resource exists and the most complete registry of BOINC projects available anywhere.
Local BOINC project wiki pages
Each project below has its own dedicated article on this wiki. Projects are grouped by research domain and activity status.
✦ Active BOINC projects

🧫 Test & Development Projects
These projects serve as active testing and development platforms for BOINC software and infrastructure rather than primary research goals.
| * Cpdnboinc dev cpdn development and testing server |
✦ Paused BOINC projects
⏯ Paused projects (expand)
These projects are temporarily suspended but have not formally closed. Work may resume in future.
| * DENIS@home cardiac electrophysiology research, currently paused | * SiDock@home drug candidate screening |
✦ Retired & inactive BOINC projects
⏸ Retired projects (expand)
These projects have suspended operations or are no longer accepting new work units. Their pages are preserved here for historical reference and research continuity.
| * Albert@Home developement site for Einstein@Home | * Amicable Numbers amicable pair enumeration |
| * Axiom Distributed AI distributed AI model training | * BlackHoles@Home black hole binary merger waveforms |
| * Data freezer long-term data archival research | * GoofyxGrid@Home NCI non-covalent interaction analysis |

How to participate in BOINC projects
1. Download BOINC
Get the free BOINC client from boinc.berkeley.edu. Available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android.
2. Choose a project
Browse the complete BOINC projects list on this wiki. Filter by research field, platform support, or GPU availability.
3. Attach & contribute
Register on the project's website, attach via the BOINC client, and your idle computer begins processing work units automatically.
About this wiki
This BOINC projects MediaWiki is researched, written, and maintained by BOINC Synergy — a volunteer initiative dedicated to documenting the global BOINC ecosystem. The projects table is considered the flagship resource: a single, structured, continuously-updated registry of every known BOINC project, past and present.
Corrections, additions, and edits are welcome. If you know of a BOINC project not yet listed, please use the talk page or contact BOINC Synergy directly.
