Doing some research

Hi guys,
I am doing some research for my dissertation which is on assessing the application of grid computing in projects such as the ones here.

I was wondering if some of you who are part of these projects might do a short survey (6 questions and a space for comments) to help in my research?

I am particularly interested in stability, security and advertising of projects but any and all info is appreciated!

I would really appreciate it if you could take part and if anyone is interested I can post the results back when it's finished.

You can find the survey at the link below
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/59XJ5QJ

Edit-

Also someone mentioned on the seti@home project forums that I was a bit anonomous with who I am and what I will do with the findings so just to clarify here is the jist of my response!

My name is Qaasim Alexander Majid, I am studying toward a Computer Networking BSc at Sheffield Hallam University in England, my dissertation is looking briefly at how these 'Distributed Computing Projects' utilise Grid Computing to achieve their aims and more in depth at how Distributed Projects achieve success over competition and ignorance. The purpose of this survey is to see what people involved in these projects see as key points of what makes/threatens a good distributed computing project.

No personal info is asked for, nor do I believe any of the questions to be invasive at all and as implied in my original post by me saying

the comments taken may be shown to people. However should you have put your name and email in the comments box as 2 people have I would ask you before putting them anywhere (not that I would have any reason to use those details in results summation).


Thanks biggrin

Re: Doing some research

Thanks mikaok for the bump - I had intended on helping wetfood with his survey, although never got a moment free when I first saw it.

I'll take a couple of minutes out now, and have a look...
