	19 Jan 2010 – Case Study: World Community Grid Accelerating research, tackling global issues
		The World Community Grid was set up to address the fact that vital humanitarian research is not being undertaken due to lack of access to essential computational power. World Community Grid harvests the unused computing capacity of volunteer PCs around the world, creating a secure virtual supercomputer available to scientists engaged in not-for-profit humanitarian research. Pioneering scientific research into disease, climate change, hunger and social science is made possible and accelerated through a global grid of devices or "virtual supercomputer", thereby helping to remove constraints of access and affordability. 300,000 years of computer run-time has been provided which has processed over 350 million results for scientists over a period of 5 years.
