DHEP allows you to host an island running a Genetic Algorithm in a coevolutionary setting synthesising future super-reliable electronics such as those used in autonomous vehicles, power stations, medical equipment, aerospace. These are of increasingly paramount importance as more and more human lives rely on well functioning hardware.

Observation of population dynamics will also help us understand Evolution, not only to harness it to reach 'better than human' designs, but also to learn how migration rates, genetic diversity and the inner mechanisms of genetic recombination have concerted to reach the biodiversity and wonder of living organisms today.

Credits are based on a trickle system like CPDN because the work units can be very long and time consuming. Progress on them is not stored on your host but on the server where the work is coming from, the work on your host are just "dummies".

Since it's a project which is not based natively on BOINC, there are a lot of statistics on the main site like:
Fine grained statistics
Progress of the current run
State of all the islands
Circuit diagrams of the best solutions
Rankings for each island
trace genetic strains and genealogy within the whole grid
