Hi chaps,

I'm in the process of bringing a new BOINC based project online and was hoping that you'd include it in your stats.

The location of the project is http://genlife.is-a-geek.org/genlife/

And this is a not-for-profit project with the purpose of running simulations on the evolution of simple systems. The project page contains a link to my original documentation and I shall (once I've tidied the code up a little) in due course publish the source code as well as welcoming anyone wishing to create a creature to run in the simulator.

I have no local forum as yet but I'm going to be working on that this week and at present I only have sample work units (the nature of the project is that I can re-use the results from one work unit as input into the next) but will start generating some real WU's once I've confirmed the GNU/Linux and Windows versions that the binaries successfully run on,

[Bok]

Cool,

yes, I'll add it as soon as you start exporting the xml stats

http://genlife.is-a-geek.org/genlife/stats/

is empty right now. Only takes about 10mins to add a new boinc project..

I've registered and created the Free-DC team.

My user ID is 7, lol. It's a single digit, it's prime, and not only is it prime, it's a Mersenne prime.

OOH OOH, I almost forgot about the whole lucky 7 concept.

Thanks chaps. Will try to get that sorted out today.

[LAURENU2]

And remember you need WU to make Stats

[alpha]

And this is a not-for-profit project with the purpose of running simulations on the evolution of simple systems.

Can you give us a more detailed description please? Can you describe the science involved? What are the ultimate goals?

[Bok]

stats are done..

http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=proj&proj=gen

They should show up soon, are in temp tables, just waiting some others to finish before renaming..

Well this kinda sucks only fifty a day
What is my PC to do while waiting for the next day knit me a new pair of wool underwear

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

Hmm yeah 50 a day might suck but think about this...
It's still a fairly new project from a quick thread read anyway.
As to what your farm can do while Idle - Crunch SoB for me, I'm a machine down :P

[Grawlfang]

Hi all,

Yes, still a very new project - hence the basic look and feel to the site and the 50 WU per day.

There is a link on the main page giving more detail on the project - up until now I''ve never been able really long simulations to see how these 'machine code' creatures evolve and survive over very long timescales (my original mahine running was an Amiga which valiantly tried by would never have been able get too 100million run cycles. My hope is to be able to run some cycles of hundreds of bilions of cycles - and I'm intending to do this by recycling 'interesting' results back as new work units which will continue on from where the previous work unit had finished,

Still rather an alpha project, so there will be teething problems, but I'm learning the ways of BOINC fast.

regards,
Mark

Bok
I do not see
http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=proj&proj=gen

in the project Index http://stats4.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=index
not even here http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=index

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

Will have a look at it see why not, Gee (poor bok) some people are Never happy

Update: it's now in the index in the correct place.

[LAURENU2]

Oh I am happy But I know Bok needs more Eyes to find all the missing links and looks ETC. And I do realize the Eminence undertaking taken on with the New stats upgrade by one and all
We All Help Out in the ways we can

[LAURENU2]

Well this sucks I have 6 nodes running it for 2-3 day and only did 37 all I get is I reached my limit ,I reached my limit ,I reached my limit What it it 20 WU's per account not PC

[Bok]

yup, I can't see everything

Thanks Lauren! Gopher is doing a great picking up a lot of stuff on the stats..

[LAURENU2]

Well they had a good run with the WU's and we jumped up passed AMD Users to the #3 seat

[LAURENU2]

OH no I think I busted there network Now there is no WU's or website

[Bok]

I can get to the website ok..

There is some news about a new release in the next day or so, so the existing wu's are draining out first..

Bok

[LAURENU2]

Now it may me but all I could get was a could not find memo, and even BOINC could not find them
|geneticlife@home|Temporarily failed upload of sim_v143

Well good new work coming and only a few more days till we take first
Better put out the sign now to start taking orders

[LAURENU2]

Steep right up Fresh Work Units get them while they are Hot

[LAURENU2]

Yippee
I took 1St Place
And Free-DC is only 3K from 1St Too

[Bok]

I'll be on it fairly soon to get my 100k

Dang enigma is taking longer than I thought.. and I got Malaria Control Test Project too...

[LAURENU2]

I think I busted it again

[LAURENU2]

I think I busted it again

I think they heard me Not it is up and running again
And we will have 1st place by the next Update

[LAURENU2]

This is turning into a pony race
We lost first place today and now we have it back
Can't wait to see who is where Tomorrow

[IronBits]

I can't seem to get any work yet.

[LAURENU2]

I can't seem to get any work yet.

YA I think we sucked the server dry about 4 hrs ago Boy this is a close race

[vaughan]

Yeah ... the server is so dry we cannot reach it!

[LAURENU2]

Yeah ... the server is so dry we cannot reach it!

Ya I have a trick for that I load all my Quads with WU's for 4 CPU's then turn it to 1 CPU to make it last 4 X as long

But they are getting better and shorter down times day by day
We have just been keeping ahead of the pack there

[LAURENU2]

LQQks Like Bok is making a Run for the 10th spot

[LAURENU2]

I guess I was wrong Bok is hungrier then I thought he went right to 9th

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

I guess I was wrong Bok is hungrier then I thought he went right to 9th

I doubt he'll stay there for long I think he's got a smaller number in mind than 9...

[LAURENU2]

I doubt he'll stay there for long I think he's got a smaller number in mind than 9...

Do you think I should him to give him some thing to Aim for

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

yup, yup mario :P

[LAURENU2]

Could I interest you in a sign ?
LQQks like you will be needing one

[Bok]

100K is my first aim.....

[LAURENU2]

Bok you could have have my spot I have been off to the wars so long __
But Now it will not be vary long (about 10 days) before we all will start losing our place settings

Maybe after the War is done, some of us can do a week hard push to recapture lost ground

[LAURENU2]

Well Free-DC will lose there 1st place seat in about 3 or so days
I am pointing more power there but I am not sure I alone can hold back BOINC@AUSTRALIA But I Will Try

[LAURENU2]

Well Free-DC will lose there 1st place seat in about 3 or so days
I am pointing more power there but I am not sure I alone can hold back BOINC@AUSTRALIA But I Will Try

Well I can hold back BOINC@AUSTRALIA
BUT SETI.USA is making a Strong move up from 3rd and will take 2nd place today
and Free-DC in about 5 to 6 days is I Do Not get reinforcements soon

[LAURENU2]

I guess I was wrong I will lose 1st place in about a day
