[edit] What does the LHC@Home Work Unit Name Mean?
In the LHC@Home Project, for example, the Work Unit Name breaks down as follows:
| Name Part | Description |
|---|---|
| wjun4B | A workspace directory name |
| v6s4hhpac_mqx | The study name where: |
| v6s4 | LHC Version 6 Subversion 4 |
| hhpac_mqx | Just a name for the particular physics case |
| 9 | The current seed number (typically between 1 and 60) representing a set of magnet errors |
| 64.2914_59.3077 | The tunes x and y (the current topic of investigation) |
| 6_8 | The initial amplitude range of the tracked particles |
| 6 | The order of the the number of turns 1000000 |
| 10 | The initial angle in phase space (between 0 and 90 degrees) |
| 1_sixvf_boinc12302 | Identification string for the BOINC System |
- Note:
- When the Work Unit is split into Results and sent out to Hosts for processing a Result Identifier is appended to the Work Unit Name. The format is "_#". The underscore ("_") separates the Result Identifier from the Work Unit Name. The "#" is replaced with the sequence number beginning with zero (0).
