[BOINC] [天文类] Orbit@Home

Youth

We are updating the system to the latest version of BOINC. The server may be down for limited periods.

服务端更新到了最新版本的BOINC，又是一条似乎无关紧要的新闻...

Orbit@Home Selected for Funding by NASA

We're pleased to announce that this project has been selected for funding by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Our proposal was submitted in response to the Applied Information Systems Research (AISR) element of the Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Science 2006 solicitation. Approximately 160 proposals were submitted in response to this solicitation, representing a potential over-subscription of the nominal budget by more than a factor of six.

This funding will provide partial support for this project for the next three years, allowing us to acquire the required computer hardware and to get started with the software development, focusing on two Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs) research areas:
1) develop a search strategy for NEAs surveys that maximizes the volume covered in the space of the orbital elements of the NEAs;
2) demonstrate the applicability and advantages of using distributed computing to monitor the impact hazard posed by NEAs to the Earth.

We plan to start releasing clients for all the major platforms, and the relative work units, by the end of 2007.

项目已经得到了NASA的资助。

大概到今年年底的时候就会开始分发计算程序和任务包了。

年底......三年的资助也不算短了

還有半年就開始
但window x86的問題還是存在~

究竟那家伙是不是只設計給企鵝群,牛頓群,太陽神和魔鬼群用的~

發現TEAM CHINA貌似都gip還沒得分kuh吖？
難道yu說大家都j是用windows_intelx86平臺的？

有種沖動。。想把學校afs某臺機子nty改成企鵝去算個試試[如果有包的話]。。。

不好意思，剛才在WIN的OPERA下打五筆，出現亂碼現象……懶得改了。



還有。。ORBIT為啥算是物理類的？它不是研究太空上的軌道的么？

呵呵，分类是个麻烦事，就当天文物理也算物理吧：）

Windows application ready - Mac OS X next
Submitted by tricaric on Fri, 04/11/2008 - 20:59.
We've focused our recent efforts into porting the SurveySimulator application to Windows. All looks good now, and we plan to add it to the system next week, along with the generation of a new set of WUs.

WINDOWS的程序出来了，下一步是MAC OS X
在下一周即将发放新一组任务。


One slow week and a half
Submitted by tricaric on Thu, 04/03/2008 - 09:52.
During the past ten days, not much has happened here at orbit@home. Many of the WUs sent out have produced errors, and this is now being taken care of. The biggest problem was that the size of output files was underestimated, so nothing too complicated to fix.

Project News
Submitted by tricaric on Sat, 03/22/2008 - 01:03.
First off, thanks to all users to take time to register again to orbit@home. Since the opening of this website, we've been very busy trying to get things started in terms of a working application on BOINC, leaving a bit behind public relations. But it is now our intention to put out project news on a weekly basis.

New Server Installed
Submitted by tricaric on Sun, 03/02/2008 - 10:41.

On February 28th, 2008 we've received the new orbit@home server. It has 2 quad-code Xeon CPUs, 8 GB of memory, fast SCSI raid disks, and is powered by a dedicated UPS unit. Right after receiving it, we've deployed it in the Planetary Science Institute's IT room, and installed the Linux Ubuntu Server OS on it. This initial phase took only just over two hours.
