Team info here

Founder is Scole. Make me an admin on project when you have a chance and I'll update team info etc, please.

6 applications listed on site, all Linux based. That seem to becoming a thing these days
No units to crunch yet though.

What is Gaia@home?

The GAVIP Grid Computing (GAVIP-GC) project is designed to give scientists another layer of freedom. The project makes possible to perform computations which demand a lot of CPU time – reducing the computational workload on GAVIP platform and opening up opportunities for heavy processing operations on volunteers computers.

GAVIP-GC allows to create a huge number of small jobs (Gaia data + code), send them to the BOINC platform and collect the results for further analysis.

GAVIP platform provides some free resources for every user which can be spend on data analysis. However, there are some use cases which not only need to read entire Gaia catalogue but also they require a lot of CPU time for computations – GAVIP-GC intends to help to fulfil this requirement by providing access to these additional free BOINC resources.

PM your email address

Updated. You didn't have to transfer foundership. Guess I'm founder now.

Available now through BAM but currently no work available. Still Linux only.

Scientific projects:
1_Gaia@home:
Calculating long-period comet orbits under the simultaneous Galactic and stellar perturbations.
(N-body problem with N of the order of 400).
(more details: Królikowska, M and Dybczynski, P.A., 2020: The catalogue of cometary orbits and their dynamical evolution )
