- abstract = "BOINC is one of the most employed middlewares in the scientific community. However, the development of BOINC applications could be difficult if the target application is an Interpreted Application such as Matlab, R or Java. The BOINC team provides an intermediate solution, the wrapper, which can run statically linked programs. Nevertheless when the application has lots of dependencies, BOINC will not be able to deploy it. In this paper, we propose to exploit the BOINC infrastructure with Interpreted Applications by complementing the wrapper program with a new application and extending the whole BOINC infrastructure by adding a new vitalisation layer, and best of all without modifying the source code of the interpreted application. Three experiments using well-known interpreted applications -Java, R and Matlab- are performed to demonstrate the viability of running unmodified interpreted applications inside a BOINC infrastructure.",
