Assimilator Daemon
From Unofficial BOINC Wiki
[edit] General
The Assimilator Daemon takes scientific data from Validated Results and puts them in the Project's Master Science Database for later analysis.
Each and every Application (which includes the Science Application that runs on the Participant's Host) requires its own unique Assimilator Program to process the returned Canonical Result and to perform the necessary tasks. Usually this will be to move the Canonical Result to a Master Science Database and to delete some of the records in the on-line BOINC Database. It may also trigger new events where the Canonical Result is transformed into another piece of work and this work is now issued as part of another Application.
The Assimilator Daemon is unique to each and every Application within the BOINC Powered Project. The Assimilator Daemon is a program, the Assimilator Program created and compiled by the Project.
