GPUGRID wins a project to advance the understanding and cure of Schizophrenia
GPUGRID will be the essential computational tool in a national publicly funded project (TV3-Marato) on Schizophrenia. The aims of the project is to perform in-silico modelling of antipsychotic drug actions. One of the previous task group called *JAN* were already starting to study this problem. Thanks in advance to all volunteers and stay tuned for updates. GDF 5 Mar 2010 14:35:42 UTC · Comment

On recent WU cancellations and redundancies
Yesterday we had to cancel several WU due to an emergency related to inherited problems from Easter's blackout and our efforts to improve our in-house developed submission system. In addition, the fact that the output of such cancellations wasthe same to that the 'redundant results' lead to some confusion between these two states. The GPUGRID team appologizes for any credit lost in the case of the emergency cancellations but reminds again its users that NO CREDIT NEITHER COMPUTING TIME is lost in the case of common redundancy in results. We refer to this post and [url=http://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=868&nowr ap=true#7762]this one[/url] for information information.

Finally GPU computing on BOINC! After delivering BOINC on Playstation last year, we are happy to announce that from today we are are able to distribute workunits on Nvidia GPUs. PS3grid.net and the new website GPUGRID.net go along to create a large infrastructure for biomolecular simulations. To run GPU workunits simply follow the instructions on the website.
