Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

As we've discussed in previous posts, due to its great computational abilities, our GPU client has had a great scientific impact so far. In our most recent FAH paper (also see the movie), the GPU clients play a star role... (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

We needed to take one physical server down, but that takes down several interfaces, including vsp07, vsp07v, vsp07b, vsp17, vsp17v, vsp22, vsp22v The machine is fscking now, so it may take a few hours for it to come back. UPDATE... (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

One machine (vsp08) and its interfaces (vsp08a, vsp08b, vsp08c) is down. Our sysadmins have been notified. Their response is slower on the weekends, so this may have to wait until Monday to come back up. (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

We're low on jobs for machines w/o SSE capabilities. We are working to fix this. By the way, I often get asked "how come FAH can get low on jobs?" This is a good question, considering that since FAH studies... (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

We've been working on the WU shortage issue and have some positive items to report. First, we have greatly improved the AS logic so it uses more information about the CPU. This information is only available in the v6 client... (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

We have a new GPU core (core 15) going into an open beta test for NVIDIA clients. This core requires a new client (see below) as well as the latest drivers (197.45). This core is the first run of the... (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

The GPU3 open beta test for NVIDIA GPUs is going well. There have been a few issues uncovered and our team is working on it. However, there haven't been any major show stoppers so far, which is good news. Here's... (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

One key SMP server is down (vspg9), which brings down all of its associated interfaces (vspg9a, vspg9b). This is making us very short on SMP WUs. We are actively working on this one, although our IT staff has told me... (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

Here's an update on our v7 client efforts. The v7 client is a complete re-write in order to make the client more reliable, simple to maintain, and easier to include features that donors have requested. The first versions will not... (...)

Re: [Folding] Folding@home nieuws

With Folding@home (FAH), we have the computer power to tackle challenging problems involved with protein folding. One of the interesting folding-related problems has to do with how proteins (and their conformational change) catalyze viral infection. While viral infection is not... (...)
