Fujitsu computer products of America Inc., a supplier of computer products in Sunnyvale, Calif., and the University of California, Berkeley, released a jointly authored paper titled "Fujitsu 10Gb Ethernet Switches Enable Researchers to Study the Universe for Signs of Life," which examines the university's information processing demands as part of the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project. The paper outlines the challenges of the SETI project, the use of telescopes to search billions of galaxies for radio signals, and how the Fujitsu XG2000 series of Ethernet switches processes the information and disseminates it to the millions of volunteers working on the SETI@home collaboration.
