Abstract
The authors share their experience in organizing volunteer computing projects for solving problems that imply massive coarse-grained parallelism. Details and features of this process are illustrated using real functioning projects OPTIMA@home and SAT@home as examples. Both projects are based on the BOINC platform. The former is used to solve global optimization problems and the latter – to solve combinatorial problems reduced to Boolean satisfiability problems (SAT).
