''', or '''GIMPS''', is a collaborative project of volunteers, who use [[Prime95]] and [[MPrime]], special [[software]] that can be downloaded from the [[Internet]] for free, in order to search for [[Mersenne prime|Mersenne prime numbers]]. The project was founded and the prime testing software was written by [[George Woltman]]. [[Scott Kurowski]] wrote the PrimeNet [[server]] that supports the research to demonstrate [[Entropia]] distributed computing software, a company he founded in 1997.
This project has been rather successful: it has already found a total of 8 Mersenne [[prime number|primes]], each of which was the largest known prime at the time of discovery. The largest known prime [[as of 2005|as of March 2005]] is 2<sup>25,964,951</sup>
As of June 2005, GIMPS has a sustained throughput of approximately 17 [[FLOPS|TFLOPS]], earning the GIMPS [[virtual machine|virtual computer]] a firm place among the most powerful [[supercomputer]]s in the world.
Although the GIMPS software has its source code available, technically it is not [[open source]], since it has a restriction which most open source/[[free software]] groups find unacceptable
