This document proposes a "Social Cloud for Volunteer Computing" (SoCVC) to address barriers that volunteer computing projects face in user discovery, engagement, and accountability. It describes how a SoCVC could leverage social networks like Facebook to connect 1% of users to BOINC, increasing eScience resources tremendously compared to current levels. The authors implemented a Facebook application to prototype the SoCVC concept and test performance. Simulation results showed how social incentives like titles for high contributors could encourage increased contribution over time through social influence within networks. An upcoming full release of the SoCVC is planned for late 2012.
