The work units are gobbled up, when will the new ones be released


You may just have to wait until things settle down. There were a whole bunch of hosts just waiting idle on Denis work and then they all started grabbing work in the same time period. This happens on all projects after there's been an outage or work has dried up. As long as they are consistently releasing new work, it'll even out.

BOINC transitioning to a Community Based Governance...

BOINC's funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation has ended, at least for the time being.
This funding supported me, Rom Walton, and Charlie Fenton.
We're now working on other things, although we'll stay involved in BOINC at some level.

The BOINC project will continue, and will be run according to a community-based model rather than centrally.
In essence, the people who contribute to BOINC now make the decisions about it.

This model is summarized here: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/ProjectGovernance
and described in detail here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1C6pU5RqidYBxk9oyAevm1yH1tn4Hw27oM8YpvsnR-gg

There will probably be little visible change.
The BOINC software will continue to work.
The translation system, Alpha testing project, BOINC web site,message boards, and email lists will continue to operate.
However, any new development and major bug fixes to BOINC will need to be done by volunteer programmers.
I'm confident that the BOINC community will meet the challenge.

I welcome your feedback.
Please post it to boinc_admin@googlegroups.com, a new email list for discussions about the BOINC project as a whole.

Hi!

Also the requirements to start computation are very high, that means that the useful time of computation in a mobile device is really small. We will try to develop it just for testing or small operations that didn't need so much computation.

Regards, Joel.


Joel, there are some of us who are willing to test potential clients on Android/ARM without credit being kept. The key I believe is making sure that any client you create takes advantage of all possible ARM optimizations, which is similar to doing it on computer systems.

It doesn't seem that your WUs are time-critical so running longer wouldn't necessarily have an impact on the project. The thing to remember is although there are those that run around the clock, BOINC is designed to run on spare CPU cycles so you have to see how long the WUs are going to run based on a mid-point Android device. Some people are just not going to be able to do it because their mobile device is too old... but that's no different than people trying to run their 486s. ;)

Sorry for the delay posting, but I've also been noticing a lot of the same errors too across two different computers so it's not just the computer/client.

I can't download the app. 0,77KBps on avg, 30% after 20 minutes.


Try just letting it sit and come back to it later. The first time I left it alone and I checked the logs in the morning it was about a half hour after I last checked it (although that it was somewhat longer from the actual download start time).

I wonder if the server is flagging the application since it is an executable. A wild guess is maybe it goes into some type of queue to be scanned for virus/worm or such... As I noted, the executable is not big so I don't think it would be due to the size...

Would love to see Droid app too. It be a good way to add extra people and crunching power.

I'd be willing to help test for Android.

It could be maybe a small issue in the university internet connection.

I checked the Event Log and discovered the work (WU) actually downloaded but since the client is stuck BOINC is showing Downloading for every WU.

Try resetting project and aborted the client download. Nyet.

Event Log is showing:

5/23/2015 1:56:27 AM | | Project communication failed: attempting access to reference site
5/23/2015 1:56:28 AM | | Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down.

So looks like you (or someone) may be working on it...

The new app won't download. It (and thus WUs too) are stuck at 0% for the last 5 minutes. :/
