RakeSearch project technical update 2018-01-06

[Newshound]

Dear participants!



During ~5 months of life, the project has significantly grown up and we want to thank all participants for that. Today there have been processed more than 1.2 mln of workunits (from ~23.3 mln of the entire set), which gave us several thousands of results with "permutational" orthogonal diagonal Latin squares and interesting search for structures constructed by these squares and squares orthogonal to them (like previously published "Necklace"). We automated many tasks which are needed for everyday project work and consumed most of time, and started deeper work with received results.



Also we encountered mismatch of current format of results publishing (as simple HTML plain page with list of ODLS pairs) with their essence and after publishing last results from December we stop to publish it in this form and start creating another interface for viewing, searching and filtering the results. Of course, we keep the tradition of congratulating participants who found the orthogonal squares. And granting them badges, too. :) And, of course, after completion of postprocessing all results will be published - at least in "raw" format.



Another important thing is the optimization of default app. We plan to implement Daniel's optimizations into it, but after setting up results postprocessing because any participant already can download and use optimized application (for many platforms!) by links from the corresponding thread.



Hope that this "technical update" makes the project life more clear to you. Thank you for your participation and happy crunching!
