Hello everyone!
I am very new at the distributed computing world.
I was wondering if there is any way you can think of, to make a unified point system. For example, is there a way of real time measurement of the CPU or GPU work done, in flops or whatever else, and then get points based on flops or any other measure?
Is there a way of ensuring that nobody will be able to cheat the system?

This would probably be a better discussion for the actual BOINC forum, as most of the projects use a credit algorithm developed by the BOINC team at UC Berkeley. There are two major versions, and there are some differences in how they're implemented at each project, but if you're looking to contribute to an overall improvement your time is best spent there.
