    Zivis close the project this week!

    Hi, this mail is in my mailbox:

    The current phase of Zivis, based in the lgv[1234] scientific application, will close later this week, going to hibernation until further development. You will find the message "No work available" or similar.
    That's all...
    Remember, I speak only spanish :S

    Finally we got a member that can translate all the Zivis emails. It seems like I get at least one every week...

    Beerknurd, Superzerocool haven´t translate anything. Here is the whole E-mail as I got:

    The current phase of Zivis, based in the lgv[1234] scientific application, will close later this week, going to hibernation until further development. You will find the message "No work available" or similar.
    The data disk has collected up to date 1,505,841,760 Kbytes and it is 84% full. We will close at 90%-95%. We have collected statistics for the following numbers of trajectories:
    1225860 A0
    1200990 A1
    489840 B0
    425594 B1
    263110 C0
    262959 C1
    153820 D0
    152302 D1
    And we have collected full graphical description for the following numbers.
    A0 4240
    A1 4222
    B0 2559
    B1 2556
    C0 8711
    D0 976
    D1 931
    As you can imagine, the extant part of the run is concentrating on results for D0 and D1. It can be interesting to remark that the initial desing of Zivis aimed for 100000 trajectories of each kind, 800000 total.
    Results from the collected data will be available at http://zivis.bifi.unizar.es/misc/results.html in the future.
    A Spanish email with instructions related to our network-deployed BOINC clients will follow to the closure of the calculations, and then later in the week an official statement about the future of the project will appear.
    We have been asked, from international participants to recalibrate the credits in the database to adjust to more modern credit assingments, but we are not sure about if it can be done without endangering the database integritiy, so it will be checked in a last step (so, no promises, except that next time -whenever it happens- we will calibrate before).
    To opt out of future emails from Zivis, please edit your project preferences at http://zivis.bifi.unizar.es/prefs.php?subset=project

    No Beerknurd. This E-mail is my first as is non-Spanish. Ewery other I got was on Spanish and I couldnt understand why they was so hard. They knew there was a lot of English speaking peoples but refuse translate their messages.

    I´m one of them as have E-mailed them about the credit because I have run 4 files as created 248 MB each as I uploaded but not got any extra points. The upload took 2 hours if I reminds right because their connestion or server was so slow. I have 8 Mbits network and it should only take 30 minutes normally.
