2) Message boards : Cafe : Новый BOINC-проект запущен! (Message 14696) Posted 11 Jul 2024 by entity Post: I cannot run the Symtuples.exe program because it only runs on Windows. I don't have any Windows systems and haven't had any Windows for about 10 years. The program would have to be rewritten to remove the Windows specific instructions in the C code.
3) Message boards : Cafe : Новый BOINC-проект запущен! (Message 14694) Posted 11 Jul 2024 by entity Post: After further review, I was wrong. All 7 programs are still running so nothing has finished yet. To answer your question, yes, I used the programs from that .rar archive. Update: I don't know how universal the program is that I compiled. The documentation seemed to indicate that it might be unique to the system it is compiled on. As a test, I could take the executable and move it from a Ubuntu system to a Fedora system and see if it works. Additionally, NO, I haven't tested it with your program.

(Message 14690) Posted 11 Jul 2024 by entity Post: I compiled the PARI/GP program for Linux and started running ...test_4 through ...test_11 simultaneously on one of my larger systems. the ...test_6 program ended after 7 hours. Programs 4,5,7,8,9,11 continue to run (11 hours so far).

5) Message boards : Science : New experiment PADLS for distributed computing (Message 9979) Posted 22 Oct 2022 by entity Post: No apologies necessary. Let me browse around github and see what I can find. I did find some source for family_mar (not sure if it is the correct source) but it looked like it had been modified for multi-threading. It had mutex instructions in the code. I haven't had to compile code since I moved into the hardware installation area and then it was mostly on large mainframe systems. This will be a good exercise to help me become acquainted with C and the compilation process. Thank you for the information
6) Message boards : Science : New experiment PADLS for distributed computing (Message 9976) Posted 21 Oct 2022 by entity Post: As mentioned previously, I looked at the github source programs and they contained a lot of BOINC API code. I assume, so they could be run in a BOINC environment and be able to have access and update BOINC variables. Did Walli remove the BOINC API code or did the programs he compiled not have the API code. Regardless, if the program source is available I could probably work with it over time (after I'm relocated) and get it to compile in a Linux environment. However, I'm not familiar with these programs so I probably wouldn't be able to test the compiled code anyway. How do these programs fit together? In what order are they supposed to run? Are ALL the programs in the github repository needed to support this experiment or just a few? etc. etc. I have tried using Wine in the past but kept running into versioning problems between the code and Wine. Code wouldn't run under the version of Wine I had installed. Even if it does run, the overhead of Wine is sometime significant but would be willing to give it a try one more time. I can't use a VM as I don't have access to a Windows OS. Last Windows version I ran was Windows 7 many years ago. In summary, I have a significant amount of compute resources (almost 500 threads) that I was willing to apply to this experiment but it seems I may not be a good fit.
7) Message boards : Science : New experiment PADLS for distributed computing (Message 9970) Posted 20 Oct 2022 by entity Post: It is my understanding that a Linux version of the program doesn't exist. I would be interested in joining the experiment but I only have Linux servers. I'm in the process of relocating and am only running the 128 thread server at this time but others will be available after the first of the year. I looked at the source on github but it seemed to have a lot of BOINC API code in it. I didn't want to tackle pulling all that code out for it to work without BOINC. I tried contacting Natalia by email but it was rejected as spam.
