原文： 複製程式 Project Status and Findings: A status report and detailed information about this project will be posted on the web pages of this site and provided by project scientists at AfricanClimate@Home. If you have comments or questions about this project, please visit the AfricanClimate@Home forums. Mission The mission of AfricanClimate@Home is to develop more accurate climate models of specific regions in Africa. This will serve as a basis for understanding how the climate will change in the future so that measures designed to alleviate the adverse effects of climate change can be implemented. World Community Grid's tremendous computing power will be used to understand and reduce the uncertainty with which climate processes are simulated over Africa. Significance Global climate change is currently recognized as one of the most pressing problems facing the world community. The negative impacts of global climate change are of great concern in all areas of the world. However, it is widely recognized that the impacts will be felt most acutely in underdeveloped countries, where the infrastructure and access to appropriate healthcare and other social services, which are critical to alleviating and responding to the effects of climate changes, is often lacking. In this regard, Africa, a continent vulnerable to climate-related stresses, faces severe challenges. The multiple effects of a variable climate within Africa are clearly demonstrated by the widespread floods in Mozambique in 2000 and 2001, which left more than half a million people homeless and killed hundreds, as well as the poor rains experienced over much of southern Africa in recent years that have contributed to pervasive food shortages. It is currently unclear how the frequency of climate extremes will change in the future, but if left unchecked, Africa's current social problems could be exacerbated, leading to even greater devastation and loss of life. 簡易翻譯： 複製程式 項目狀態和研究結果: 關於這個項目的情況報告和詳細的資訊將被張貼在這個站點網頁和 假設由項目科學家在AfricanClimate@Home。如果您有關於這個項目的評論或問題, 請參觀 AfricanClimate@Home 論壇。 使命 AfricanClimate@Home 的使命是開發具體地區更加準確的氣候模型在非洲。這將服務為據為瞭解怎麼的氣候在將來將改變以便措施被設計緩和氣候變化的不利影響可能被實施。世界公共柵格的巨大計算能力將被用於瞭解和減少氣候過程被模仿在非洲的不確定性。 意義 全球性氣候變化當前被認可作為緊迫的問題的當中一個面對世界社區。全球性氣候變化的負面地影響是憂慮在世界的所有區域。但是, 它廣泛被認可, 衝擊最深刻地將感覺在發展不充分的國家, 對適當的醫療保健和其它福利事業的基礎設施和通入, 對緩和和反應氣候變化的作用至關重要, 經常缺乏。 就此, 非洲, 大陸脆弱對與氣候相關的重音, 面對嚴厲挑戰。易變的氣候的多個作用在非洲範圍內由普遍洪水清楚地展示在莫桑比克2000 年和2001 年, 左更多比50 萬人無家可歸和被殺死的上百, 並且惡劣的雨有經驗的南非近年來對瀰漫的食物短缺貢獻了。它當前是不明的怎麼氣候極端頻率在將來將改變, 但如果留給未經檢查, 非洲的當前社會問題能被惡化, 導致更加巨大的毀滅和喪生 參與設備最低需求： AfricanClimate@Home, 設備最低要求： 至少256 RAM (與虛擬記憶體使能) 1 GB 硬碟運算空間可使用 顯示模式 GeForce 6200 以上 網路連接最小值 756 kbps 速度 作業系統: Win98, Me, 2000 或 XP 設定步驟：     x0

Launch of Help Conquer Cancer Project -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Launch of the Help Conquer Cancer Project World Community Grid is pleased to launch the Help Conquer Cancer project by the Ontario Cancer Institute (OCI), Princess Margaret Hospital and University Health Network of Toronto, Canada. The mission of Help Conquer Cancer is to improve the results of protein X-ray crystallography, which helps researchers not only annotate unknown parts of the human proteome, but importantly improves their understanding of cancer initiation, progression and treatment. For additional information on this project, please press the Research button in the upper navigation bar or click here. google翻： 全球社區網格高興地開展幫助征服癌症計劃，由加拿大安大略省癌症研究所（保監處） ，瑪嘉烈醫院和大學衛生網的加拿大多倫多。該特派團的幫助征服癌症，是提高成績的蛋白質x射線晶體學，這將有助研究人員不僅詮釋未知部分的人類蛋白質，但重要的，提高了認識，癌症的啟動，進展和治療。額外信息關於這個項目，請按下按鈕研究中上部的導航欄或點擊這裡。 Forums In addition to providing information about this project, we have created a forum for discussions about the Help Conquer Cancer project. To participate in this forum, please press the Forums button in the upper navigation bar or click here. Only forum authors with the title "Help Conquer Cancer Scientist" are authorized to comment as representatives of the research organization: University Health Network (Toronto, Canada). Project Participation Help Conquer Cancer is the ninth research project to be launched on World Community Grid and one of five projects currently active. The other four active research projects are: AfricanClimate@Home, (launched August, 2007), Discover Dengue Drugs – Together (launched August, 2007), Human Proteome Folding - Phase 2 (launched July, 2006) and FightAIDS@Home, (launched November, 2005). For more detailed information and FAQs about each of these projects, please click on the Research button in the upper navigation bar or click here. We thank all of our members for all of their valuable contributions to the projects to date and hope you will continue to help us process those, as well as this latest project. google翻： 幫助征服癌症是第九屆研究項目，以展開對世界共同體網格計劃，其中5個項目，目前活躍。其他四個活躍的研究項目是： africanclimate @家（ 8月發射， 2007年） ，發現登革熱藥物-連同（ 8月發射， 2 007年） ，人類蛋白質折疊-第二期（ 7月發起，2 0 06年）和f i ghtaids@家（推出11月， 2005年） 。為更詳細的資料和常見問題，逐一介紹這些項目，請點擊，就中心的研究按鈕上的導航欄或點擊這裡。我們感謝我們的所有成員都為他們的寶貴的貢獻，該項目到目前為止，並希望你們繼續幫助我們這些過程，以及這一最新計劃。 Because there are five research projects running on World Community Grid, your grid agent could receive work units from any of the projects. You may elect to focus your computer's time on only particular projects, if you have a preference. To do so, press the My Grid button in the upper navigation bar and select My Projects or click here. Please note, that members were not automatically opted in to the AfricanClimate@Home project due to the computationally intensive code. To read more specifics on the system requirements for Help Conquer Cancer and the other projects, click here. If you are already a member of World Community Grid, running the BOINC version of our software, there's nothing that you have to do to prepare for the Help Cure Cancer project. The next time your grid agent communicates with the servers, it will send you a work unit from one of the projects at random for which your machine meets the minimum requirements and according to your project participation election preference. To know which project you are running, please double-click on World Community Grid icon in the system tray, and you will see the title of the project in the display. To contribute to the Help Conquer Cancer project, you will need to be using the BOINC software rather than the United Devices software. If you are running the United Devices version of our software, you should use this occasion to migrate to the BOINC software so that you may participate in all current and future research projects. You may migrate to BOINC by following the instructions here. Migrating is easy and takes less than 5 minutes. The install process even uninstalls the UD software for you automatically. Questions? If you have any questions, World Community Grid provides you with four methods of obtaining assistance: (1) Review the FAQs found in the Help section of the website; (2) Review the forums to see if anyone has asked/answered the question that you have; (3) Ask the question in an appropriate World Community Grid forum found here, and a Community Advisor or a more experienced member will provide an answer; and (4) Send an email to the support desk from the Contact Us link found at the bottom of every page of the website (except in the forums). Thank you! ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by nelsoc at Nov 1, 2007 8:30:38 PM] http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/projects_showcase/hcc1/viewHcc1Main.do<--來源 WCG官網資訊 Help Conquer Cancer Project Status and Findings: Information about this project is provided on the web pages below and by the project scientists on the Help Conquer Cancer website.

Researchers have been able to make important discoveries when studying multiple human cancers, even when they have limited or no information at all about the involved proteins. However, to better understand and treat cancer, it is important for scientists to discover novel proteins involved in cancer, and their structure and function. Scientists are especially interested in proteins that may have a functional relationship with cancer. These are proteins that are either over-expressed or repressed in cancers, or proteins that have been modified or mutated in ways that result in structural changes to them. Improving X-ray crystallography will enable researchers to determine the structure of many cancer-related proteins faster. This will lead to improving our understanding of the function of these proteins and enable potential pharmaceutical interventions to treat this deadly disease. PS： BOINC (Only) 一起加油囉 加入方法同樓主參加附圖 x0
