MindModeling.org Banner Contest 2009!!
June 30 2009 09:45:08
While our researchers are preparing new models to run on MindModeling.org, the MM team has decided to take some time to update and make
improvements to the website. Part of this is the inclusion of a Mind Modeling banner that can be displayed at the top of our main webpage.
Instead of simply making the banner ourselves, we decided to open up the design to all of our volunteers and hold a contest to select the
best design. The banners will be voted on by the MindModeling team, and the winner will get to see their work displayed on MindModeling.org for at least the
next year. We will keep the contest open until the end of July, 2009.
Please submit all entries to our forum here: Banner Contest 2009 or
via email. If there are any questions or concerns, please let me know through email.

Daemon shutdown and DSST6 model
June 28 2009 09:08:08
Hello crunchers! A model that we submitted to the volunteers last week was recently aborted, but all the workunits were not purged from
the database. We're shutting down the server side daemons until all instances are removed. In the meantime, please abort any workunits
with the prefix DSST, because generally they will not work on volunteer machines. Thanks!

Database Migration Complete!
June 25 2009 15:08:08
Hello crunchers! MindModeling.org has completed it's database migration, run two small tasks within the last
couple of days, and is ready to submit large cognitive models to the volunteer community again. Our team and
contributers are expanding, our research is growing, and our models are getting more complex and
computationally intensive. We look forward to the active participation from our volunteers, and as always,
we appreciate your help! Good luck and happy crunching! (So say we all)

After many hours of configurations, builds, and reboots, the new Mind Modeling database is finally up! We're still configuring all our

There was a quick disconnect this afternoon between our database server and MySQL. The system is rebooting the data right now, and
everything should appear normal again in just a few hours.

We're installing a new database this week, and there may be short periods of disconnect while we make the transition. Consequently, we'll
be pausing our current jobs until the installation is complete. Thanks for all your support and we look forward to your continued
participation! :)
