Welcome to the ABC@home website.
This project will try to find abc triples related to the ABC conjecture. Account creation has been temporarily closed

EDIT: Mike, any idea how the credits work? Dependent on that retard benchmark?

[mike047]

I think the administrator is setting the points. No benchmark that I know of. AMD may have an edge in speed. Varied work some as short as 3 min-up to 2 hrs+/-.

I went in the back door the other day[beta] and switched over to "stable" this morning.

Team established, so check it out.


beta;

[mike047]

Qurom of 2, accounts should be open tomorrow morning.

They have also discovered that 64 bit applications crunch about 3 times as fast, and are considering offering 64 bit applications and 3x the credits. Still under consideration.

[mike047]

Account creation is open.

Is this going to be a DC-Vault project or you guys just crunching for the sheer pleasure?

It has to be evaluated and some input from crunchers is required.

Please post here about the project;
http://www.team-ninja.com/vbulletin/...ad.php?t=40373

We are currently #4 in total points and RAC. If we can get this to the vault, we will make some points. We are ahead of all the teams above us in the vault.

Good to see you Wildblue

I'm hoping it will go to the DC-Vault. Project is running smooth so far. It did give me pleasure today watching the results go in.

Its a nice virgin project to make good progress in.....

[nn_step]

question, are you doing the project for the sake of the project or more for the simple creation of a team in it?

My object at the present is to advance our standings in the vault. I feel this will give XS DC a better stature, and make us a more desireable team to join in DC projects. More members= more points=higher standings.

There are projects[I have 46 boxes to spread around] that I feel do valuable science, some maybe not so much science. Any project that can "find out" something that we didn't know is of some value. Some projects will carry a heavier weight for my participation than others.

I like the stats and I like the science....

I agree with Mike we need to put the XS name about in the DC projects if people call by and like the look of us they may decide to stay. Look at me I only called by to say hello to an old team-mate DCManiak and then decided to stay.
I have thrown everything I have at ABC@home to give us a start but I now need to move most of my computers back to other projects so if anyone has a spare computer to throw on this project please do.

A Novice, thanks for the big boost. I might really power up on this for awhile so that when it goes Vault we will be at the top or near it.

ANY Help, short or long term by anyone will help and be appreciated.


FIXED credit on this project, benchmarks don't count.

We are #4 RAC and total with Team Norway@#13.

I also agree with mike, and I am doing the same. I don't have the firepower he does, though. I'm spread too thin to help out on this right now. I'm working mostly on protiens@home and psp right now. Once we move up enough in those I could throw something on this.

[[XC]thewildblue]

I do it for the stats to be honest. Dont know about everyone else.

I have been saying about this for a while with the vault standings but you guys are the only ones who agreed with me....

Its the best advertising for new recruits.

You are absolutely correct
I tried selling that as well as you did/do without success, also.

Maybe, someday, we can say; Told You So

Hi guys, how long do you think a 600MHz Celly would take folding the average WU with this project?

Cos there taking like 30h on WCG per WU atm

The wu's on ABC are about 1hr long on a 2.4 AMD box. You should be able to do a couple a day. The credits are fixed so there is no benchmark issue as with most other projects.

We would be glad to have your help.

WELCOME to Jason

We are currently 5th in points and RAC, we are starting to fall behind. Team Norway is in 14th.

I will put the power play to this project[16+ boxes] Saturday morning and maybe get us RAC and eventually #1.

If we hit the vault at #1 we will gain a lot of vault points

i hope it gets added with all the work you guys are putting into it. goodluck!
