 Supercomputer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While no one has yet built an ad hoc computer cluster that rivals even yesteryear's supercomputers, the line between desktop, or even laptop, and supercomputer is beginning to blur, and is likely to continue to blur as built-in support for parallelism and distributed processing increases in mainstream desktop operating systems.
Computers running the Shake software merely need to be in proximity to each other, in networking terms, to automatically discover and use each other's resources.
For this reason, traditional supercomputers can be replaced, for many applications, by "clusters" of computers of standard design which can be programmed to act as one large computer.

 Google Compute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Google Compute is a separately downloadable add-on for the Google Toolbar which allows participation in a distributed computing project to help scientific research.
When one enables Google Compute, the computer downloads a small piece of a large research problem and performs calculations on it that will then be included with results from thousands of other computers.
Google Compute is currently only available for the English language version of the Google Toolbar.

The Google Compute version of the Google Toolbar detects when a computer is idle and puts it to work on complex mathematical problem from such fields as drug design and global climate modeling.
The goal of Google Compute is to make a contribution to science by enabling Google Toolbar users to easily donate their idle computer time to worthwhile causes.
Google Compute in its standard mode runs in the background at the lowest possible priority, all of the time.

 INFO: SQL Server and Windows NT Thread Scheduling
On a computer dedicated mainly as a database server, interactive console performance is usually not a priority.
For example, a compute bound thread could be diminished from priority 31 to 16, and as long as all other threads are at 15 or below, it will receive just as much time at 16 as at 31, and its system impact will be just as great.
Often the misconception exists that by lowering the priority of a compute bound thread a certain amount, this will result in a proportional decrease in the CPU time it receives.

 Branch and Bound
There must also be a way to compute an upper bound (feasible solution) for at least some instances; for practical purposes, it should be possible to compute upper bounds for some set of nontrivial feasible regions.
To apply branch and bound, one must have a means of computing a lower bound on an instance of the optimization problem and a means of dividing the feasible region of a problem to create smaller subproblems.

Google Compute is set at low priority, so other programs that are running (at normal or high priority) will use processor clock cycles as they need it, even if they need 100% of the processor's usage.
Heat shouldn't be an issue unless you've got a notebook computer, an over-clocked computer, a computer with a processor at a high clock speed, or a computer that just doesn't have enough cooling for some reason.
Google Compute is a feature of the Google Toolbar that enables your computer to help solve challenging scientific problems when it would otherwise be idle.

 Google Toolbar Compute - Folding @ Home
Google has a new thing called Google Compute that installs as part of the Google Toolbar (Google Toolbar is highly recommended for the Google Search box and pop-up blocker).
It uses idle time on your computer to do an analysis of proteins which are related to a variety of diseases (such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's Disease, and others) as part of Stanford's Folding @ Home project (explains why they call this protein folding).
Basically it's no more intrusive than using the Google search engine and tests have shown about a 0.5 to 1% performance hit even in demanding games (it is the lowest priority task and throttles back whenever you need more power).

 Google Toolbar Compute - Questions
One of the first questions you should ask is whether or not Google Compute, or even the Google Toolbar, are adware or spyware.
You should note that your CPU chip never gets a chance to "throttle down" unless you change a setting, so especially on notebooks, so things will probably "hum along" a bit more than before you installed Google Compute.
Finally, here is the FAQ from Google about the Google Compute project that give a good overview and addresses various issues such as privacy, spy-ware, performance, and how you can easily turn it off or uninstall completely if you need to.
