Previous projects included CSC and DES. ECMNET Project to factor numbers using the elliptic curve method. Client and server software. Ellipsa - Elliptic Curve Primality Proving Primo, a primality proving program based on the ECPP algorithm. With Primo one can check crypto-primes and prove whether or not they are actually prime. Generalized Fermat Primes Search Project provides software to search for primes of a specific form. Coordinated via email.

MM61 Attempt at factoring the huge Mersenne number 2^(2^61-1)-1. Software for Windows, DOS and Linux. Work reservation via email. The Prime Pages Prof. Chris Caldwell's database of virtually every large or otherwise interesting prime number known; includes the 5,000 largest known prime numbers and records for specific types. The Prime Sierpinski Problem Mathematical project to find the smallest prime Sierpinski number. Proth Search Page A list of prime number searches using Yves Gallot's proth.exe program, available to download. Maintained by Ray Ballinger. The Riesel Sieve Project Distributed project to help solve the Riesel problem through the use of donated unused CPU cycles. RSA Security - Challenges Monetary prizes for factoring certain large numbers ("RSA Numbers"), as well as breaking RSA and DES encryption schemes; announcements mailing list. Search for the Largest Proth Prime An internet group to help find the 5th largest prime number, coordinated by William Garnett. Windows/Linux software available. Seventeen Or Bust A distributed attack on the Sierpinski problem, trying to find the last remaining 17 numbers.
