Google Play Description - Power Sleep lets you donate the
processor power of your smartphone
or tablet to support researchers at the
University of Vienna with the
decryption of protein sequences. The
decrypted sequences are used to
benefit cancer and Alzheimer's
research, amongst others.
THE FIRST ALARM CLOCK TO DO
GOOD DEEDS
Power Sleep functions like an alarm
clock. When you go to sleep, your
smartphone or tablet requests a data
package from the SIMAP server
(Similarity Matrix of Proteins) at the
University of Vienna and starts
calculating. When your alarm rings,
the process ends and the package is
recorded in the SIMAP database. Fully
automatically and for free – Doing
good has never been easier.
Your network operator may charge
you to download the app and data
packages via a mobile data network
or WiFi. Please ask your mobile
wireless or internet provider about
rates and data volumes.
HOW IT WORKS
Power Sleep uses BOINC, a
technology for distributed computing,
as the basis for using the unused
processor power of your smartphone
or tablet only when you don't need it.
To ensure everything runs smoothly:
Remember that your smartphone or
tablet must be connected to a charger
and switched on
You must be connected to a WiFi
network so that Power Sleep can start
calculating
Please ask your internet provider
about rates and data volumes
You have the possibility to change
your standard settings so that the
data packages can also be calculated
via the mobile data network
Please ask your wireless provider
about costs and data volumes
Exceeding your data volume can lead
to additional costs
The average amount of data
transmitted is 1 MB per package for
download and about half the size for
upload
The estimated duration for the
calculation takes between 30 minutes
and 1 hour per data package – the
longer you sleep, the more data
packages can be calculated
All functions remain available during
the use of Power Sleep
Power Sleep functions on Android
smartphones and tablets from version
2.3 with ARM processors onwards.
For optimal use, we recommend
smartphones and tablets from Android
version 4.1.

FOR CONNECTION PROBLEMS
An app update can cause connection
failures with the SIMAP server. To
solve the problem, the connection
must be re-initialized for the new app
version. Please restart your
smartphone or tablet and start
Samsung Power Sleep again.
