关于那段视频,我听了几次,本来想把里面的文字弄出来的,但是水平有限,不能完整写出来。一些片断。

... daily life, millions of personal computers are idle o ...
在rtm的基础上,我努力奋斗了一下,还是有些词听不出,就当是游戏一下吧。
While we're busily living our daily lifes, millions of personal computers sit idlely on our office deskes than at our homes. The views on computers as unavailing objects but now through technology of grid computing, your PC can actually be enlisted to assist in global scientific research whenever you are not using it.
Well, the world community grid is a whole new way of giving. People are only actually using their computers around 5 or 10 percent of the time during a day.So they walk away from their computer or they're not using it for a minute or 2 minutes or 5 minutes or longer.All of that computing power can be collected and donated for important health and environmental research.
World Community Grid, a global humanitarioan effort, brings together the collective power of millions of individual PCs than business computers to solve some of the world's most chanllenging problems.
This is a great..., is very..., is something that has not been done before. We are ... the gap between development and technology in a very very creative way.
Through grid computing, individual PCs are joined together, using special secure software, to create one large system with massive computational power.The technology delivers the power to provide the computing speed necessary to reduce the time it takes to do medical and envirentmental research from years to months.
Well,IBM has been working on grid technology, which is what's behind the World Community Grid, in our research laboratories for quite some time. But we decided that we would donate this powerful gird technology, our computing power, technical expertise or infrastructure to be able to create something not in the business interest, but in the human interest.
The first project that World Community Grid takle is the human proteome folding project, which is key ... knowledge of human diseases.
The advisers abroad will select 5 or 6 projects per year, in the areas of health, environment, ... HIV AIDS and natural disasters.
