4/18/2004 New reference machine for FAH points determination
In the coming week, we will roll out our new points determination system. The advantages are:
There will be much more standardization for points and deadlines.
The points and deadlines will be determined on a more modern machine (2.8GHz P4), although they will be scaled to match current Gromacs projects.
What is the upshot of all of this? Put simply, Tinker WU points are about to go way up, Gromacs will be mostly the same, and there will be less fluctuation between projects. All currently running projects will be re-evaluated and all new WUs will benefit from this change, once it has been instated.
We take the points in FAH very seriously and try not to make such significant changes without much consideration. Indeed, this is the first change in the history of the project. However, this change is critical to account for changes in FAH donator computer hardware over the last 4 years.
We will post more specific info in the FAQ as we roll out the new points and will post links in the news and the forum site.

4/18/2004 FAH将启用新的评分标准
在下星期，我们将采用新的评分系统。好处是: 评分和时间期限将更加标准。
分数和时间期限参照一个更加合适的机器(2.8GHz P4) ，虽然他们不会对当前的Gromacs项目产生任何影响。
这样做的结果?简单地说，Tinker数据包的分值将大大上升，Gromacs将保持不变，各项目会有较小波动。所有现有项目都会被重新打分，所有新数据包都会受益于这个变动。
我们会非常谨慎的为FAH评分，没有经过深思熟虑不做任何大的变动。的确，这是项目历史上第一次的变动。然而, 这变动对在过去4年期间参加的机器而言是非常重要的。
当我们启用新评分标准时我们将在FAQ页面发表更加具体的信息，并且我们会在新闻页面和论坛上给出相关的链接。
