Twin Prime Search
Volunteer computing project seeking large twin primes
Twin Prime Search (TPS) is a volunteer computing project that looks for large twin primes.[1] It uses the programs LLR (for primality testing) and NewPGen (for sieving). It was founded on April 13, 2006 by Michael Kwok. In number theory, it is conjectured that there are infinitely many twin primes, and this is known as the twin prime conjecture.
