The ARP team is preparing to restart after the project was put on pause in December 2022. This article outlines the steps that we are taking in order to restart this project.

Despite the fact that the project was put on pause by the ARP-team due to capacity limitations of their storage system. many machines must have been crunching ARP1-tasks in January, February, April and May 2023, thanks to the efforts of the WCG-team by providing an extra temporary storage space.

Yes, this is certainly good news, and should keep our 'crunchers' busy for a while

Very welcome news.
I hope there is going to be some sort of plan for the catching up of the laggards, especially the 3 Ultras. Mike |

Thank you for the update!!
----------------------------------------In case this helps anyone interested in tracking the ARP1 generations, I found these two links elsewhere on this forum and have them open in separate tabs: https://download.worldcommunitygrid.org/boinc...rp1_stats/generations.txt https://download.worldcommunitygrid.org/boinc/download/arp1_stats/state.txt

I've actually turned ARP off.
1. Tooo loong 2. Don't believe in their goals any more. Number 2 is open to change though. |

Hey Bobby,
No worries you don't have to like ARP. There are plenty of other WCG or BOINC projects. The ARP WUs are long, and there are a limited amount of them, and they aren't suited for every computer. There will be a big fight over the small pile of ARPs that will probably be released in small batches to keep the servers up. I personally think that weather data is perfect for a BOINC project. These huge data sets take a lot of processing power. Weather and growing food is very important to me. Thank you for the 5+ years of ARP you have already processed. |
