FP stands for Foldinator Project.

The Foldinator Project has been established to support the cause of Team Helix and to have some fun while we are at it. Foldinator Project runs Folding@Home and, until it was completed, FP also ran Genome@Home, the Distributed Computing projects of Stanford University.

These "systems" are made up of so-called "blades"... with each blade being one AMD based personal computer. These systems are built, configured, administered and hosted by team members. We have both Folding@Home and Genome@Home blades and the WUs (Work Units) these blades turn out are credited to Team Helix under this project's name.

The Foldinator Project is made up of volunteers who donate either money or computer parts for one of these systems. For more information please come to the Distributed Computing Special Projects forum.
