Project status
The project has currently no work (see below).
The similarity matrix of the SIMAP project is currently up to date. The calculation of new simap workunits containing the novel proteins from october 2006 will start around november 1st.
The initial calculation of protein domains has been finished. The calculation of updates (new sequences and new domains from InterPro 13.0) will start around november 15th.

BOINCSIMAP turns into periodic project: As to be seen in the project stats and batch monitor, the work for simap and hmmer is limited to few remaining batches. The hmmer calculations went much faster than expected due to the performance optimizations of this application. Thus our databases for protein similarities and domains will soon be up-to-date. We are celebrating this very important milestone and would like to thank all the BOINCSIMAP users that made this happen. Now we will focus on the integration of SIMAP with more bioinformatics methods, portals and databases - thus increasing the impact of out project on computational biology and biosciences. In the future SIMAP will need your contribution by crunching regular updates. Every month updated sequences and domains will be written into simap and hmmer workunits that will need to be calculated. We would be happy if you would stay connected with our project by crunching these periodic batches of work.
