OpenProcessing - Share your sketches! Appropedia. DesktopGrid – BOINC. Grid versus volunteer computing ¶ Grid computing is a form of distributed computing in which an organization (business, university, etc.) uses its existing computers (desktop and/or cluster nodes) to handle its own long-running computational tasks.
This differs from volunteer computing in several ways: VolunteerComputing – BOINC. What is volunteer computing?
¶ Volunteer computing is an arrangement in which people (volunteers) provide computing resources to projects, which use the resources to do distributed computing and/or storage. Volunteers are typically members of the general public who own Internet-connected personal computers. Organizations such as schools and businesses may also volunteer the use of their computers. Projects are typically academic (university-based) and do scientific research. BOINC. OFTC - Home. OpenUDC project. OpenUDC.

From DARPA, A Virtual Tool To Revolutionize Robotics. The DARPA-funded Gazebo simulation software could make robotics accessible to everyone. Atlas The Gazebo software lets you download a fully detailed virtual model of Atlas, pictured here, one of the world's most advanced humanoid robots. DARPA The DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC), the most ambitious robot competition in history, cleared a key milestone yesterday.
The Pentagon’s research wing announced the results of the Virtual Robotics Challenge, a five-day-long qualification event during which 26 teams from around the world directed a humanoid robot to complete astonishingly difficult tasks, with little to no human intervention, including picking up, attaching, and turning on a fire hose. Open Wi-Fi Comes to Tunisia: Ex-Dictator's House Turned Into "openwireless.org" Hotspot. The Open Wireless Movement has come to Tunisia!
When former Tunisian dictator Ben Ali was ousted, the Tunisian Internet Agency (ATI) was quickly transformed from an institution of control to one of openness, reversing the oppressive censorship policies of the Ben Ali era. Similarly, the ATI's building—once a private home of Ben Ali—is now being transformed into a space for citizens to innovate.

The same lesson should be learned by companies that make software but choose to assert their patent(s) against others. Any time you make a claim of patent infringement and you are a producer you face the possibility of counterclaims unrelated to your patents, and those claims are not limited to patent infringement claims. This is a lesson now being learned by Twin Peaks Software in what may be the most important GPL enforcement action to date.

OpenNet Initiative. Openitp.org. Indian Open Standards policy finalized. After three years of continuous running battles, India's Department of Information Technology has finalized the National Policy on Open Standards for e-Governance.
This incorporates many of the key points submitted by Red Hat. Over the last three years, we worked with our friends in government, academic, civil society and the media to push the Indian government in favor of a policy that mandates a single, royalty-free standard. The final policy and the comments that Red Hat had submitted are attached. In the previous draft dated 25/11/2009, our major objection was to section 4.1.2 of the policy which said,
