[edit] Motivation Behind MindModeling@Home

As the computational cognitive modeling community has become more ambitious, it has begun to exceed all but the most impressive of local computer processor resources, thereby restricting the breadth and depth of the research questions that can be studied with cognitive models. Distributed, volunteer computing is an attractive and innovative means of overcoming this limitation. This project researches ways to leverage the vast resources of volunteer computing nodes across the internet for the cognitive modeling community. This would provide an enormous resource for deep exploration of cognitive theories for academic, commercial and defense researchers alike.
