Il nuovo progetto del "gruppo LHC" è diventato stabile ed è uscito dalla fase di test e con questo sono attivi 5 progetti legati alla fisica dell'accelleratore ginevrino.
Il nuovo progetto del "gruppo LHC" è diventato stabile ed è uscito dalla fase di test e con questo sono attivi 5 progetti legati alla fisica dell'accelleratore ginevrino.
Attenzione è sul forum di CMS-Dev (boincai05.cern.ch/CMS-dev/) che è il sito dove si gestiscono le app in sviluppo, da non confondere con quelle di produzione.
E come sviluppo, stanno testando il nuovo applicativo Linux nativo e non più via vbox. Dovrebbe essere più veloce
New native Linux ATLAS application
Hi all,
If you don't use Linux you can ignore the rest of this post. If you do you may be interested in trying the experimental ATLAS app which doesn't use virtualbox but runs natively on Linux.
IMPORTANT!! To run this app you must install CVMFS, the CERN VM File System, and configure it for ATLAS. This file system contains all the software for ATLAS WU and is normally inside the virtual image (the same as for all LHC vbox apps).
A simple installation guide can be found here: cernvm.cern.ch/portal/filesystem/quickstart
You should set up the repositories as shown in the example for ATLAS. If you have a squid proxy handy you can specify it there - if not I'm not sure whether it will work or not without configuring one.
Our target for this app is CERN or ATLAS-related institutes who have idle machines with CVMFS already installed, and we do not expect the average volunteer to install CVMFS and run this app. But I think all of you here are above-average volunteers and you may be interested in trying it.
Please give feedback on the ATLAS forums. Unfortunately there is no way to check for CVMFS on the client before requesting tasks, so if you don't have CVMFS you can still get these tasks and they will fail straight away. So better to uncheck the ATLAS app if you don't want to run it. 23 Feb 2017, 15:48:35 UTC · Commenta
Change of project name
As mentioned earlier (under "Project Restructuring"), CMS-dev has evolved into a more general dev project for virtual machine applications running under LHC@home.
We will therefore rename the "CMS-dev" project to "vLHCathome-dev" as it is now a development project for early testing of applications that potentially could run in production under the Virtual LHC@home platform.
The change is planned for tomorrow 13 UTC, and you should later see this project as:
lhcathomedev.cern.ch/vLHCathome-dev/
Redirection will be put in place, so in principle BOINC clients should be able to follow. Otherwise please detach the project and re-attach to the new URL at your convenience.
Thanks to your contributions and feedback on tests of our applications, CMS-dev has been a success, and we would like to express our warm thanks for your contributions! :-)
Please note that this remains a development and test project, that might provide unstable applications and that any BOINC credit accumulated here might get lost.
If you prefer to just crunch and get credit, please give priority to our production LHC@home projects.
Many thanks for your collaboration!

Tasks for the LHCb application will start to be submitted. By default this has been made opt-in so you should only get tasks if you specifically ask for them. The application is still in development so only give it a try if your curious. 7 Mar 2016, 15:22:48 UT
beauty ecco il tassello mancanteAn initial alpha version of the LHCb application has been added. There are currently no tasks for now. Two new topics have been created for the message boards so that discussions on the CMS application and LHCb application can be kept separate. 3 Mar 2016, 11:00:25 UTC

Project Restructuring
As discussed in other threads, we would now like CMS-dev to become our general testing project. In order for this to happen the project should support sub-projects similar to PrimeGrid and per app credit. We are aiming to add these features within the next few days. 1 Mar 2016, 9:56:45 UTC ·
CMS beta in Virtual LHC@Home
Some tasks are now being run through vLHC@Home -- see this thread for details. 12 Oct 2015, 14:17:20 UTC
Aaah, ma quindi chiuderanno i battenti sul vecchio url?
Meglio così, sarebbe bella una grid di tutti i progetti LHC.
Migrating to vLHC@home
As most of you already know, the aim of this project was to get the CMS application to a point where it was mature enough to be added to the vLHC@home project as a beta app. We believe that we have now reached that point and would like migrate our activity to that project.
The CMS beta application which should be identical to this one is now available in vLHC@home. Out of the 190 volunteers that have credit, 89% already have a vLHC@home account. Please could everyone who is running here try out the CMS beta application from vLHC@home. To do this you will need to go to the vLHCathome preferences and enable CMS Simulation.
lhcathome2.cern.ch/vLHCathome/prefs.php?subset=project
If the beta app is working for you, please stop running here. Once most have migrated, no new tasks will be created and the accumulated credit can be migrated from here to vLHC@home.
Please post any comments or issues relating to the migration in this thread.
Thanks to everyone who has supported this project and enabled us to get to where we are today.

Mah, devo dire che personalmente non vedo questo presunto crash anche continuando a scaccolare come facevo prima con una adsl similare a quella che citi tu. E dire che qui di traffico ce n'è...
Quindi sostanzialmente mi stanno dicendo che se ho una normale ADSL Telecom a 7 mega (che come velocità è ancora la più diffusa in Italia...) con un upload di 0.3 Mbps non posso far girare il progetto? O che comunque rischio molti crash?
