Description-en: metapackage for the BOINC client and the manager
The Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) is a
software platform for distributed computing: several initiatives of
various scientific disciplines all compete for the idle time of
desktop computers. The developers' web site at the University of
Berkeley serves as a common portal to the otherwise independently run
projects.
.
This package depends both on the BOINC core client program that is
required to participate in any project that uses BOINC, and the
BOINC Manager, a graphical monitor and control utility for the
BOINC core client.
