[Minecraft@Home] Loneliest Seed v1.08

Hi folks!

I know it's been a bit, life gets in the way sometimes. However, I've released v1.08 of the Loneliest Seed project which aims to address the checkpointing issue.

We're experimenting with a CPU project separate from this as well, so stay tuned for that! If the experiments go well on our end we're anticipating launching a CPU app that will aid us in our years-long research into finding methods of reversing PRNG states in the Xoroshiro128++ algorithm.

Best regards,
Minecraft@Home Team

[DENIS@Home] We are back! // ¡Estamos de vuelta!

Dear volunteers,
We are back! The wait has been longer than we would have liked, but surprisingly, what we bring comes sooner than we expected. Ivan Royo has been working this term on the 1D version of DENIS (denis-fiber) and we already have a first version to start testing. It is a fairly advanced version of what will be the final one (still without checkpoints), but at this point it is very useful to start testing to see that everything is going well and to polish the last details.

Thanks to a grant from the Ministry, Iván is studying how cellular differences (interpatient variations) affect the propagation of the electrical impulse in the heart, and for this we need to scale up. If the tests go well, we will start running simulations within this new project. For now, they are all functional tests. We will start with manageable simulation sizes and gradually increase the number based on how the server responds and our post-processing capacity.

The optimization of the models is still pending as well, I hope we can resume it soon.

Best regards,
Jesús.

Estimados voluntarios:
¡Estamos de vuelta! La espera ha sido más larga de lo que habríamos querido, pero sorprendentemente, lo que traemos viene antes de lo que esperábamos. Ivan Royo ha estado este curso trabajando en la versión 1D de DENIS (denis-fiber) y ya tenemos una primera versión para empezar a hacer pruebas. Es una versión bastante avanzada de lo que será la final (aún sin chekpoints), pero en este punto nos viene muy bien poder empezar a hacer pruebas para ver que todo marcha bien e ir puliendo los últimos detalles.

Gracias a una beca del Ministerio, Iván está estudiando cómo afectan las diferencias celulares (variaciones interpaciente) en la propagación del impulso eléctrico en el corazón, y para ello necesitamos subir de escala. Si las pruebas van bien, comenzaremos a lanzar simulaciones dentro de este nuevo proyecto. De momento son todo pruebas de funcionamiento. Vamos a empezar con tamaños de simulaciones manejables e ir aumentando el número para cómo va respondiendo el servidor y nuestras capacidad de postprocesado.

La parte de la optimización de los modelos está aún pendiente también, espero que podamos retomarla en breve.

Un saludo,
Jesús.
