So, we are getting closer to the start-up, when ever that will be. At that point, what happens to the project? Are we done? I hope that we are still able to contribute something. Please check out my blog http://sciencesprings.wordpress.com http://facebook.com/sciencesprings |

When LHC goes live they will create mini black holes and other weird particles that will destroy the Universe. Therefore no plans have been made for after that date. <smile> |

My understanding was that when the LHC goes live there will be a heap of work to be processed something like over 100,000 DVD’s of data collected a year for us to process, is this the case or not? Cheers Speedy Have A Crunching Good day |

There will be tons of data to be processed, however little if any will be coming through the BOINC project according to the last official word I saw. The data size to processing time ratio is likely to be too high for efficient distribution. BOINC WIKI BOINCing since 2002/12/8 |
