The <b>Amino acids</b>, components of proteins, the main characters in GPUGRID simulations. Given per <b>total number of credits</b> and milestones in 20 levels, the number of amino acids encoded by the universal genetic code (ordered by molar mass ~weight). Amino acid/credits equivalences below.

<img hspace="8" src="http://www.gpugrid.net/img/badges/aa/AA_badges_all.png"> 

The <b>Waters</b>, basic component of life and a distinctive trait of our long and accurate simulations. 7 levels (Plastic, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Ruby, Emerald, Sapphire) to represent <b>relative contribution to our scientific publications</b>. Each water badge will be linked to the corresponding publication and Science topic. Water/percentage equivalences below.

<img hspace="8" src="http://www.gpugrid.net/img/badges/papers/pub_badges_all.png"> 

The <b>donor badge</b> is changed to the crown <img hspace="8" src="http://www.gpugrid.net/img/badges/crown.png"> 

The complete information is available in the <a href="http://gpugrid.net/volunteers.php" rel="nofollow">Volunteers</a> page. We will update the server at the start of next week!

Dears, we're sending 1000 more WUs related to the modeling of neural system. 

These are named TONI_FAAEAC1 and TONI_FAAEAN1. They should give out 47700.9 and 36228.6 credits respectively.  

As always, make sure you disable the "acemdlong" app in your GPUGRID preferences if you don't have one of the latest cards.

This is the first formal announcement for the new Badge System. Next week, we will unveil the badge images, although the final implementation may still take two or three more weeks. We can already tell you that there will be two types of badges: one for the total number of credits (one badge per user) and one to acknowledge the relative contributions on our publications (one publication, one badge). More soon!

We have added BOINC-client shortcuts to commonly-accessed GPUGRID web pages. (Known as <i>Client Web Links</i> or <i>GUI Urls</i> in BOINC lingo.)

You should soon see the following buttons appear in the Projects/GPUGRID tab: Your account; Your team (if any); Server state; Donations; Science; Forums. 

Best wishes for a great year 2012!

There has been further project development in the HIV research line which you may find on the Science page of the website. 

I would also like to personally thank all volunteers for their continued support of this research. Thanks to your crunching we have been able to uncover one of the fundamental processes in the maturation of HIV.  Some further computing is required to complete the work (Tag: HIVPR) and we look forward to your continued support in the future.

Guys, you are seeing it. 

Thanks to the awesome work done by Ignasi, GPUGRID.net has a new, stylish, (even steelish :-) appearance. The redesign affected essentially all the areas of the website. 

We (well, Ignasi) has paid especially close attention to the "Science" section - it's completely redesigned, and includes visual cues of the each major area we are doing research in.  We hope you will enjoy it!

Needless to say, the forums and user/task/WU/server status pages are also updated and in sync with the new style, but they maintain all the old functionality. The <i>BBCode</i> thing is now functional. For more details, comments, etc., please refer to the "server and website" forum.

A whole-hearted thank you to Ignasi for this Christmas present to the group.

Toni

Hi all, I have submitted 1000 new workunits to the long queue. The simulations focus on the receptor CB1, and with them we hope to gain some insights that will have important implications for a wide range of diseases, including several neurological disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, pain, and cancer.

We upgraded the server software - if WU distribution, reporting, etc. is confirmed to work correctly, on Monday we will update the web pages.

As a first consequence of the upgrade, you should be receiving "notifications" in your BOINC clients.

Dears, just another reminder that we'll soon be upgrading the server software. There will be some down-time. 

Even though we planned the transition carefully, we can't anticipate exactly how long will it last (hopefully in the order of hours). Feel free to increase the work cache.
