and some activities and braimstormings.

The 21st march, conferences will focus on earthquake sensing project, Quake Catcher Network, in South East Asia.

The conferences will be held in english and will start from 9am to 7pm (UTC/GMT + 8 h)
Local Time in Taiwan

And as I'm very kind :-D , I'm going to bring my laptop, a good webcam (Logitech C910 HD) and if everything goes well, I plan to broadcast the videos in LIVE !
(So watch out the Local Time in Taiwan)

This part, for me, is very interesting!!
From Asia@home site:

In this talk, I'll cover: statistics on the hardware characteristics of volunteer hosts (CPU capacity, RAM, free disk, GPUs, network BW); BOINC's mechanisms for matching jobs and hosts; BOINC's mechanisms for dealing with extreme requirements; (RAM, disk, runtime); how we handle MPI apps in BOINC.

And just to let you know, the videos will be available 7 days after the record on justin.tv, afterwards, I will upload them on my server or using P2P (Coupled with my server anyway)

But during the live, if you want to ask question, you can use the chat function and I'll try to ask them.

Ciao

But tomorrow, you can still follow in live

Hi there !

I've finally finished to convert the Asia@home 2011 videos.
I was quite busy recently and the raw videos were quite big (65GB) so..sorry for being late.

You can download all the videos (9) here (With torrent and I've added my gigabit server to seed them, ie you should not have any speed issue):

Enjoy them and feel free to share them !
