This server is managed by the Erasmus Grid Office and is intended to be public,
we need to make some changes on the web server to set everything correctly and
add some topics to the message boards, which we'll be doing later this week.

Followed is some initial information about us.

The Erasmus Grid Office offers services to the researchers within the Erasmus
Medical Centre who are in need of high performance computing resources for
there projects. There are several grid infrastructures where we have access on
which include desktop grids and dedicated clusters.

Erasmus Computing Grid: A joint collaboration between the Erasmus Medical
Centre and the High school of Rotterdam which consist of Condor based desktop
grids.

D-Grid: The German Grid Initiative funded by the Federal Ministry of
Education and Research, a grid infrastructure consisting of numerous
dedicated high performance computing clusters where they use Globus,
LCG/gLite and UNICORE as middlewares.

EDGeS (Enabling Desktop Grids for e-Science), a European project with the aim
of creating an integrated Grid infrastructure consisting of BOINC and
XtremWeb based desktop grids.

Fraunhofer Playstation Cluster: A joint cooperation between the Fraunhofer
ITWM and IBM Development Lab in Böblingen which consist of thousand cell
processor cores.

This is controlled by a backend that handles all the grid related tasks on
these infrastructures for our users, who in there turn use a frontend system to
communicate with the backend. Correlizer is one of those services where the
backend will eventually also schedule jobs to Boinc servers and as most of you
already have noticed AlmereGrid is one of them. Currently the bridge is not
completely hooked up to the backend and the pipeline is setup in a slightly
different way to make it work.

I need to discuss some things with Tobias to see what (other) topics to add to
the message boards. I will also update my profile by the time we officially go in
production, shouldn't take more then a couple of days.

About the collaboration with other grids, the work on the dedicated clusters and
the Erasmus Computing Grid all use the same sequence but calculate different
window sizes. For the BOINC infrastructures this is currently not the case, here
each server calculates another sequence but in all cases no duplicated work is
send (except of course for the redundant workunits). This will change in the near
future when the bridge is completely hooked up with the backend, then it will
also work on the same sequence as the other grids do.

Couldn't get in touch with Tobias for the science part of the forum yet, but have
added the 'Team Recruitment' forum as you suggested.

OK, I think I get it, I had seen a post on another forum and they had
posted you ahd the same application with no other information, like they were
saying it was duplicating effort. I just want to be clear it is not duplicated work.

We need to talk with the different BOINC collaborators to see if we can add (or
link) some information on there pages, because the information is not always
correct or even there in some cases.

Yes it would be good if you could sometime soon give BOINCstats authorisation to include Correlizer in their daily statistics.

Thank you, I'm not certain but I think BOINCstats sometimes waits until an administrator of a new project gives the official OK before publicly displaying statistics.

Thanks for the information, there are still some small things we need to do, but
if that doesn't pose as a problem you can release the stats.

Stats are now showing in BOINC Combined, BOINCstats and Free-DC.

I gave MundayWeb a bump and reference to this thread.

I haven't checked other stat sites yet.
