I'm a Computer science academic find interesting computational problems to be solved on top of PlayStation3. What would be current computational problems that would be interesting to be solved using multicore cpu's like PS3?

A:
How 'bout gangs of PS3s turned into a parallel super computer?
Can be used to solve any multi-physics simulation, giving solutions for partial differential equations in fields like physics, finance, engineering, geology, etc.
The mind reels.

PS3 can definitiv be used for high-performance computing stuff. However, due to the heterogenious computer architecture they are extremely hard to program.
