About CONVECTOR

CONVECTOR is a research testing project, which use volunteer computing. Now we calculate optimum of discrete optimization problem, at first the optimum of 10-bar truss is searched for. Note that we need approx 8500 cores/days (one core count is 23 years). You can participate by downloading and running a free program on your computer.
