Hello,
Today we notice that our planet and humanity in general are struggling with a virus killer, called Corona, which is part of the Covid virus family.
Until now the epidemic is still present in all the countries of our world, all the organizations and all the societies try to find a solution to limit the number of people infected by the virus and why not find a solution to fight against the Corona virus.
We live in a digital and digitalized world or simply computerized, people ask all the time questions about the roles of data processing in our life against this kind of problem, among these questions: can we say that IT can help find a solution to stop the spread of the virus.
In this article we will try to give several advantages of computers in the face of the Corona epidemic.
Yes in my opinion it is possible if everyone's computer was helping to fight the coronavirus epidemic which is currently wreaking havoc around the planet, by using the computer as a server in distributed cluster, so that we get to create a super computer. the objective is to pool computer computing capacities to carry out large-scale simulations on diseases, and in particular on the "protein folding" process, which plays a role in the mortality of certain pathogens. with this computer we will have the possibility of bringing the computing capacities of this virtual super computer to 400 petaflops - a petaflop corresponds to a million billion calculations per second -, which makes it 3 times more powerful than the best super computers in the world. In principle there is no limit to the computing power we can use.
The objective of the computer is based on research on diseases, which today intends to devote the unused time of your computer to the search for remedies against the coronavirus / COVID-19.
