RE: New BOINC Project - Distributed Hardware Evolution Project
I remember the earlier, pre-BOINC, version of this project. It folded when Miguel finished university. It solved some problems, as can be seen on its website. When I joined, the circuit was particularly difficult. The project ended shortly afterwards.
You just planted 0.09 tree(s)!
Thanks to @rufusfirefly
We have planted already 3504.55 trees
out of 1,000,000
Let's save and restore Abongphen Highland Forest
in Cameroonian village Kedjom-Keku!
Plant trees with @treeplanter and get paid for it!
My Steem Power = 30459.86
Thanks a lot!

I remember looking at this page but all of the results here say that the discoveries were "hand made" so I assumed the project hadn't made much progress as of yet.
Interesting story nonetheless, I love it when a scientific discovery has its own story behind it!
The first row contains the "hand-made" version of the circuit that an engineer created. In many cases, this is just two copies of the original circuit with additional gates for fault-checking. The second row contains the evolved circuits that accomplish the same function with fewer gates. That is, they are more parsimonious. That's the whole point of the project: creating more parsimonious fault-tolerant circuits.
