Application version v0.04 (problems thread)
(Message 313)
Posted 21 Jan 2014 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] It doesn't make sense to me because we fix the problem of critical section since the 0.03 version. Moreover, before writing the checkpoint we don't have any critical section! We will surely investigate this issues (already saved in the to-do list ;-) |

[changelog] Gene Network Application
(Message 310)
Posted 20 Jan 2014 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] Changelog of the Gene Network Application v0.09
- Better time estimation
- One input file sticky (compressed) - One single input for the application (compressed) - Change the score computation
- Linux glibc problem solved - Re-introduced the "score.txt" output file (not used for validation, we will use it for statistics) - The application can handle a variable number of input files (this should reduce the network usage) - The application now compute part of the post-processing analysis
- Removed the "score.txt" output file and the related MD5 library
- Results file problem with carriage return/new line solved

Wish List :
Future requests
(Message 305)
Posted 20 Jan 2014 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] Now the project is beta but, in the future, may be stable and public We think about to this possibility when we started integrating the software with the BOINC API... Unfortunately our algorithm is not so much parallelizable, hence is not suitable for the GPU hardware. I don't think there will be a GPU version of our project. 2) Screensaver We think about it, and it will eventually develop. So far we had and we are still having more important issues to resolve. 3) Android client (for smartphone) I don't think that our project would be suitable for a mobile platform, also because we have very big input file. 4) Extension for better performance (like AVX) We have this point in our TO-DO list but our implementation is already very fast w.r.t. other implementation, hence is not a priority for the moment. You have been warned!! :-) Thanks for your suggestion! |

Posted 20 Jan 2014 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] I reset the project in order to test the new application version, as soon as there will be new wus. It didn't happen to me that the client downloaded files without wus. Did you try to reset the project instead of clean the directory? Could you try to remove the project and re-add. |

Posted 17 Jan 2014 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] In the scientific description of the PC algorithm is wrote: "In particular, the PC (Peter-Sprites) is an improving of the SGS algorithm [..]" There are two errors:
2) PC means Peter-Clark, Spirtes is the second name of Peter.

Application group request (compact stderr)
(Message 252)
Posted 5 Jan 2014 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] I've computed some wus with the new application... There are still a thousand lines in the stderr with 500 tiles, but I think that the lines printed are necessary for future debug! |

(Message 251)
Posted 5 Jan 2014 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] Every wus need of two files, the one with the data and another that contains the portion of work to be done. If you remove one of this file the application cannot execute. Anyway the stderr that you posted, in particular this part: <message> and this part: ERROR: Invalid parameter detected in function (null). File: (null) Line: 0 I don't recognise as our output, so I guess that the two previous messages are coming from BOINC. |

Application group request (compact stderr)
(Message 243)
Posted 4 Jan 2014 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] Please try to make the stderr output more compact. From Yes, the new application version have a more compact stderr with timestamp! Also, do you need to read the complete_gene_net at every iteration? Shouldn't be more efficient to just read it at start or returning from checkpoint and keep it (or a copy of it) in memory? We cannot read and store all in ram. For arabidopsis, that is a small genome, we calculated that the ram needed will be around 8 GB! |

Application error on Windows x64
(Message 166)
Posted 24 Dec 2013 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] We looked at the stderr of the wus. All of hem reported the same error. Searching the web for that error we found that is related with some missing libraries of windows. The problem lay on the pc of DanT. |

Posted 24 Dec 2013 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] Good! Let's consider this page now: http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test/genehome/joinus/system-requirements.php The section "How to participate" is completely wrong! Doesn't make sense. I suggest to remove it, also because in the menu the title of that page is "System requirements". I suggeste to remove also the whole part called "Management of users". I don't get the point of that section. |

Posted 19 Dec 2013 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] We used int boinc_time_to_checkpoint();when we write the checkpoint file. So I guess that is not related to the suspend issue. |

Posted 19 Dec 2013 by FrancescoAsnicar [SSC11] Also on Mac OSX the suspend does not suspend the task... In the BOINC API there is nothing about suspension code-side. |
