<h2>Preferences</h2>
|

|
|
|

|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Participants can create "preference sets"
|
||
|
|
describing their resource usage policy.
|
||
|
|
A preference set includes the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li> Whether work (computation and network transfer)
|
||
|
|
should be done while that host is in use
|
||
|
|
(i.e. while keyboard and mouse events are going on).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<li> Whether work should be done while the
|
||
|
|
computer is being powered by batteries.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<li> How much disk space should be used by BOINC.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<li> How much network bandwidth should be used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
A user can maintain multiple preference sets,
|
||
|
|
and can independently associate hosts with preference sets.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
These preferences apply uniformly to all projects.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
In addition, projects can define their own application-specific
|
||
|
|
preferences (e.g., choice of color scheme).
|
||
|
|
<b>This needs to be fleshed out.</b>
