They actually all do slightly different things so it is worthwhile for them to operate seperately.

rosetta@home-mostly works on improving the rosetta modeling software itself.
folding@home-studies the machanics of the folding process.
predictor@home-attempts to predict what the final fold will be.
worldcommunitygrid-uses the rosetta software for actual studies.

So as you can see from this simplistic summary only rosetta and WCG are really ripe for combining.

SIMAP is another protien project, I am not familliar with it though.


Thanx for your answer - now the grand concept behind the scenes is a little bit clearer to me :-)

It looks like it may have been moved to the Wish List > http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=870

It has really been moved and answered

a Few days ago I posted in "Number Crunching" ...

"Why doesn't rosetta combine efforts with

folding@home
world comunity grid
and predictor@home"

I simply wanted an answer - but it seems to me as if my posting HAS BEEN DELETED !!!!

There was no reply, no email, nothing

Why this ?

Hi !

It seem's to me, that there are many projects working on the protein folding problem like:
rosetta@home
folding@home
predictor@home
worldcommunitygrid
... and maybe some more
Is my assumption correct that they are all targeting the same goal ? Why don't they combine efforts in a single project ? Or is this happening behind the scenes allready ? Thanx for your explanation, Marcus Tik
