Dear participants, after sending last tasks for target 20 (corona_DHODH_v1) we will start the experiment with one of already processed targets but with new parameters. Results for this tasks will be large and we will slow down the creation of new tasks for reducing load on network infrastructure. Often there will be no tasks.

[Universe@Home] Electricity issue

On last two days we had serious electricity problem in CAMK (not only in server room - in whole building).
Unfortunately, the problem isn't solved yet, as some elements needs to be replaced on electricity supplier side.

We can get power cut on any time in next days without previous signal as currently our power line is used at maximum its capability.

I will inform you as soon as I get more information.
