论文答辩完成后(那时论文也会公布出来,有兴趣的可以去看看),项目就会终止运行了(貌似一直都没开放注册?),服务器上的积分和留言板等信息会转移到另外一个镜像服务器上。

During the last couple of months, I have been finishing and revising my dissertation. This work includes data produced by this BOINC project, as well as data from another computational method. I have one section of the dissertation for this project, describing how it works and what the outcome has been. After I am finished, it has been approved by my committee, and the university deals with its publication/printing processes, I will post it online (which the university does as well) and you can view a description of what the project does and some images produced by the calculations your computers have performed! In addition to data tables and plots, in the introduction, I made images to demonstrate and explain gravitational lensing. These images were produced using BRaTS@Home ray-tracing. These images combine data sets from multiple computers and users, which is the advantage of using BOINC for this work. So if you have been granted credit, when you view an image that I produced, it is likely your computer contributed to part of that, based on the way I distributed the workload and the number of simulations I use. Certainly, everyone contributed to the overall result.
What does this mean for the future of the project? I will defend this dissertation on April 9th. After revisions I may make based upon suggestions of the committee, I will officially be finished. Unfortunately, that means this project will come to an end. Since I have enjoyed running this project and would like to keep a record of it and the all of the participants, I will mirror* this site at http://research.davecoss.com/brats/ , which is a site I have used as a second place to find the project status. Then once the university shuts down my server, the webpage will still be available, including message posts, profiles and of course credit listings and rankings. However, that should not happen until either the end of April or beginning of May. I will post updates about that in the future.
*Just so you know, I will mirror only the HTML content and BOINC credit. As far as user information is concerned, only the user names in the message board will be retained. Everything else will be removed. I have no desire to keep personal information, such as email address and account keys(!), or maintain the security that information like that requires. So you can be assured nothing but your BOINC user name, which also appears on this message board, will be carried over. IF you want that removed too, email or PM me and I will replace your name with "Anonymous" (or something else if you prefer). That is no problem. |
