Charity Engine

In August 2014 the Rosetta@home project reported Charity Engine had contributed over 125,000 new PCs to its grid.[7]

In January 2017, Charity Engine was credited as a significant contributor to solving protein-folding problems in the paper "Protein structure determination using metagenome sequence data" published by the journal Science.[8]

In September 2019 a team led by Andrew Booker at the University of Bristol and Andrew Sutherland at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) used Charity Engine to solve the sums of three cubes problem for the number 42,[9][10] as well find solutions for four other numbers in the same problem. The numbers found by Charity Engine are:

${\displaystyle 3=569\ 936\ 821\ 221\ 962\ 380\ 720^{3}+(-569\ 936\ 821\ 113\ 563\ 493\ 509)^{3}+(-472\ 715\ 493\ 453\ 327\ 032)^{3},}$

${\displaystyle 42=(-80\ 538\ 738\ 812\ 075\ 974)^{3}+80\ 435\ 758\ 145\ 817\ 515^{3}+12\ 602\ 123\ 297\ 335\ 631^{3},}$

${\displaystyle 165=(-385\ 495\ 523\ 231\ 271\ 884)^{3}+383\ 344\ 975\ 542\ 639\ 445^{3}+98\ 422\ 560\ 467\ 622\ 814^{3},}$

${\displaystyle 579=143\ 075\ 750\ 505\ 019\ 222\ 645^{3}+(-143\ 070\ 303\ 858\ 622\ 169\ 975)^{3}+(-6\ 941\ 531\ 883\ 806\ 363\ 291)^{3},}$

${\displaystyle 906=(-74\ 924\ 259\ 395\ 610\ 397)^{3}+72\ 054\ 089\ 679\ 353\ 378^{3}+35\ 961\ 979\ 615\ 356\ 503^{3}.}$[11]
