22) Message boards : News : New N-Body Runs (Message 61093) Posted 12 Feb 2014 by Jake Bauer Post: I have started a bunch of identical narrow range n-body runs. They are: de_nbody_02_12_sim_orphan_narrow de_nbody_02_12_sim_orphan_narrow_2 de_nbody_02_12_sim_orphan_narrow_3 de_nbody_02_12_sim_orphan_narrow_4 ps_nbody_02_12_sim_orphan_narrow ps_nbody_02_12_sim_orphan_narrow_2 ps_nbody_02_12_sim_orphan_narrow_3 ps_nbody_02_12_sim_orphan_narrow_4 We are getting really close to a major scientific result! Thank you, and keep crunching! Jake
23) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.40 (Message 60589) Posted 15 Dec 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: I am releasing a new version of N-Body with some MINOR changes. There should be nothing different from 1.38 in terms of the cruncher's side. However, if you notice any problems, please post them here. Jake
24) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.38 (Message 60537) Posted 8 Dec 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: There is a long overhead time in these runs due to the way we generate our particle distributions. This process is not multithreaded and takes awhile, but it should still say that it is running. I will look into it.

26) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.38 (Message 60357) Posted 11 Nov 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: We noticed this was a problem. I am of the opinion that there is no inherent advantage to running MT tasks and plan to release only non-MT versions for the next n-body release.
27) Message boards : News : N-Body (Message 60091) Posted 3 Oct 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: MilkyWay@Home is not doing anything with the large scale structure of the Universe. We are trying to map dark matter in the Milky Way galaxy. Knowing this gives us rich information about how galaxies evolve and what dark matter is. In order to do this, we model collisions with the Milky Way by dwarf galaxies. We can deduce the location of dark matter from the resulting collisions via a long list of complicated calculations that have very many subtleties that make this science very difficult (hence why MilkyWay@Home is such a novel instrument). The time scale of our results comes from the need to optimize a 7-dimensional surface with no known functional form. The reason our model is so important is so that we can know for sure that we have a working method before we can trust the results we get from real data. I am proud to report that this is going very well and that we expect a publication on this science very soon. Thank you for your support, and I very much hope that it continues. Jake

29) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.38 (Message 59942) Posted 20 Sep 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: Expect N-Body 1.38 on Monday or Tuesday. When the time comes, post comments here. Jake
30) Message boards : News : N-Body (Message 59908) Posted 17 Sep 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: Hi everyone! You may have noticed the lack of n-body runs. This has been due to the fact at a recent conference, we thought of some really cool science we could try to implement in the next release. We have derived a new dwarf galaxy model to make our simulations more realistic. I have spent the last few weeks deriving, implementing, and testing this new model, and I think we are almost ready for a new N-Body release! Stay tuned for more information about the upcoming release! Jake

32) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.36 (Message 59478) Posted 29 Jul 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: They should be downloaded automatically. Are you seeing errors because of this?
33) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.34 (Message 59456) Posted 25 Jul 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: No problem. It's my job haha.
34) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.36 (Message 59436) Posted 23 Jul 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: Just kidding! I messed up the release for 1.34, so expect 1.36 with the same changes mentioned in the 1.34 thread in a couple hours. Sorry about that, Jake
35) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.34 (Message 59433) Posted 23 Jul 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: I have released N-Body 1.34. I have included a fix for the computation errors due to the reporting of NANs on Windows machines. The likelihood calculation has also been modified to reflect the one in our theoretical models. Post feedback here! Jake
36) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.32 (Message 59432) Posted 23 Jul 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: I am just about to announce the release!
37) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.32 (Message 59399) Posted 19 Jul 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: The error you are seeing will be resolved in the next release. It is a consequence of correcting the likelihood calculation. For now, there is nothing you can do about it. Jake
38) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.32 (Message 59355) Posted 14 Jul 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: Thank you. The first one is peculiar. I will look into it.
39) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.30 (Message 59317) Posted 11 Jul 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: Hi all, N-Body version 1.30 has been released. This includes a fix for stack overflow issues. Any problems should be reported here! Thanks, Jake
40) Message boards : News : N-Body 1.18 (Message 58711) Posted 11 Jun 2013 by Jake Bauer Post: Can someone please let me know if the process is still running after it gets stuck at 98%? Thanks, Jake
