Credits for the BBC part of the Project are recorded separately. "We have met the enemy and he is us." -- Pogo Greetings from coastal Washington state, the scenic US Pacific Northwest. |

You\'re online now, but at the climateprediction.net site at Oxford Uni, which is a different project. If you want to be online to see your BBC model, then you have to login to your account at the BBC site, where you first signed up. And the researchers can access both lots of data, because the BBC server is physically located at Oxford Uni, with all the other servers involved in the various climate modelling projects, of which the BBC\'s is just one. |

Via trickles. The sign over the shop front says BBC, but inside everything is labled Oxford Uni. It\'s an internet address thing. |

The answer is that unless the computer running the model has some web access, you will never be able to send data to our servers. The program is basically a \"glorified web browser\", that is, it communicates on port 80 (HTTP) and all communication is initiated by your running client (i.e. it\'s not an \"open port\"). |

Thanks a lot guys. I hope I have it right at last. The model stores the results on my PC, and whenever I am browsing on the internet, it automatically sends these results to the servers at Oxford University. Correct ??? Yes. The BOINC part is separate from the climateprediction software, and provides the means of communication between the model, you, and the rest of the world. |
