New applications, new deadlines and durations
Thanks to Crunch3r (of SETI optimised client fame), we now have 64bit Windows and Windows Itanium applications. Thanks to Crunch3r - we're proud to have him on board! Please let me know how you get on with these applications. No news on the OS X front yet, but I've been in contact with a couple of people, so we'll see what turns up in the coming weeks...
I've also made significant changes to the way we calculate duration and deadlines. The server calculates a few trajectories before creating work, and uses the resulting estimate of number of floating point operations to calculate an approximate WU duration. You should notice that estimates become more consistent with the next few work releases.
As for deadlines, I've now set this so that clients will fail to meet the deadline if they perform less than an average of 1000 floating point operations per second on each WU from the time they are issued the work. If we begin to see lots of clients failing, I'll reduce this figure. Think of it as "average required work."
In nächster Zeit ist Ruhe.January 29, 2007 Status Report
Unfortunately more patience is the order of the day. Solving the problems with the OS X versions of the last application release is proving more time consuming than I'd expected. Also, commitments in Canada and Borneo until May are due to begin within days.
Please feel free to contact me through the message boards or by E-mail about anything you think I may have missed. In the meantime, happy crunching on your other projects, and I'll be back here as soon as possible.
August 3, 2009 Project suspended
Having had no time to do anything with the project in the last year, I'm switching off the scheduler. It's been a learning experience, but now I'm finding it more efficient to wait for local machines to finish jobs than putting in the considerable effort required to keep a BOINC project running.
Thanks for everyon'e help with setting up and testing out the project. It may make a comeback one day...
