Badges on the World Community Grid (WCG) projects are to recognize time effort spent on the project. 2 days ago I received a notice of achievement of am Emerald badge for the Mapping Cancer Markers project.
The emerald badge is given for providing a year of computer power (in sum for several CPUs) to the project. In my statistic on the WCG website I can see that 1 year and 5 days of work are delivered, 670 results are returned and 436,249 point are generated.
The next level is a Sapphire level which represent 2 years of computer power invested. The last one is Diamond for 5+ years.
My results are increasing recently due to more computations with the WCG but work provided for these tasks with GRCpool are not included.
Of course, these budges and statistics are not very important but still some feedback to indicate importance of volunteers to science. These graphics and badges can be good to attract children and pupils the science. To complete some school projects.
Of maybe this is good to be reported on read.cash to have other users to install BOINC, start computations and report on the progression.
