[http://bearnol.is-a-geek.com/wanless2/ '''''WEP-M+2 Project'''''] is a '''''[[wikipedia:Volunteer computing|volunteer distributed computing]]''''' project that uses [https://boinc.berkeley.edu/ '''''BOINC'''''] for Mersenneplustwo integer factorization.

== Why WEP-M+2 Project? ==

* ~~why this topic/object of study?~~

* Mersenneplustwo because they’re the most interesting mathematically, especially when it comes to integer factorization.

== Goal ==

* ~~summarize~~ the ~~objectives and challenges which~~ the ~~project addresses, before jumping into details~~

* Mersenneplustwo numbers are those integers that are two more than a Mersenne prime. Mersenne primes are of the form 2^p-1 http://www.mersenne.org/. This makes Mersenneplustwo numbers of the form 2^p+1.

* WEP-M+2 Project aims to find the factors (ie integer divisors) of Mersenneplustwo numbers.

== Methods ==

* ~~always including "why~~ BOINC"?

* BOINC is sooooo cool. I originally setup a server on spec because I felt I wanted the extra cycles, and when I saw the first wu’s come in over the network even from just my own little local farm, let alone later all the external volunteers, I was hooked for the next 17 years… :)))

* ~~(Optional) insert MediaWiki image or upload[[File~~:~~Example of a GUI~~.~~png|alt=example mediawiki image|none|thumb|example MediaWiki image]]~~

* The underlying algorithm is released open source at: https://github.com/bearnol/we

* impactful final statement
