11 | | * The [http://mindmodeling.org/ MindModeling@Home] project has incorporated two United States Air Force Department of Defense LSF clusters and an additional Beowulf cluster in their beta project. Tools to facilitate this included: LSF submission scripts, control scripts to dynamically clean up potentially reschedule clients upon node time out and a multiple BOINC instance installer. |
| 14 | [https://github.com/Nauchnik/CluBORun CluBORun] (Cluster for BOINC Run) is aimed at |
| 15 | utilizing idle resources of computing clusters in volunteer computing projects based on BOINC. |
| 16 | The key feature of CluBORun is that it utilizes only idle resources of computing clusters |
| 17 | (just as the BOINC client does for computers) and uses only ordinary cluster’s user rights. |
| 18 | When tasks from another user appear in a cluster queue, |
| 19 | CluBORun stops BOINC tasks in queue if new tasks can be launched on freed resources. |

| 22 | * Researchers are CERN set up a system where submitted jobs are sent either to a BOINC project or to a GRAM job manager. |
| 23 | They developed two utilities, kill_wu and poll_wu, to support this. |
| 24 | They are in the boinc/tools directory. |

| 27 | * The [http://lattice.umiacs.umd.edu/ Lattice] project from the University of Maryland has developed |
| 28 | a Grid system that integrates Globus, BOINC, and several other software components. |

| 30 | * The [http://cbl-boinc-server2.cs.technion.ac.il/superlinkattechnion/ SuperLink] project from Technion University |
| 31 | developed a system that dynamically assigns jobs to a central server, a local cluster, |
| 32 | the EGEE grid, or a BOINC project, based on their estimated runtime. |
