Ilya I. Kurochkin, Anatoliy Saevskiy · Procedia Computer Science · 2016
The article based on the experience of running BOINC projects. We interviewed developers of projects on the platform BOINC in order to adopt their experience with the platform: issues with which they are confronted, how they have solved them, what changes have they done in BOINC and their opinion about BOINC platform, what should be improved in BOINC platform to make it better. Next we were study materials about experience of using the BOINC platform and BOINC issues. Finally we made conclusions about the actions to be taken for the development of BOINC: increase number of crunchers; rewrite the platform using modern architectural solutions and the latest technologies; initiate creation of services providing access to computing resources of crunchers.
