Drive Data test

Purpose

Create a template for any drive data as table with important data fields to unify the drive pages.

Data fields

• Status: reflects the current status: red -> done, green: ongoing (color depends of "Date end" given or not)
• Project: like NPLB,RPS,PG,SRBase,...
• Drive name: e.g. "NPLB Drive 10"
• Purpose: including type of search (Riesel,Proth,SG,Twin,GFN,...), k-range, n-range
• Date start: 2000-01-01
• Date end:
• MultiReservation: only set to a MRx-value, not displayed
• Current status: determined from MultiReservation, or only text if no MR
• k-values: if ongoing, currently used values
• n-range: like k-values
• No. candidates: overall if known
• Sieve: If a sieve file is available: internal file or link to external page/file
• No. primes found: new and confirmed
• external link: like MersenneForum

Others to show out of the drive data

• k-history: all changes over time with dates/links
• n-history: ...
• Other notes

Example

NPLB Drive 11 - This drive is done.

NPLB Drive 11 - Ongoing

Project	No Prime Left Behind
Drive name	NPLB Drive 11
Purpose	Searching Riesel primes, 2000 < k < 3000 minus 5 k, 425001 ≤ n ≤ 600000
Current status	Multi Reservation 7: The current nmax = 2,300,000 as of 2024-05-16
Date start	2009-06-22
Date end	2010-11-19
k-values	2000 < k < 3000 excluding k = 2041, 2055, 2085, 2115, 2175 (reserved/done by others)
n-range	425001 ≤ n ≤ 600000
# candidates	3123551
Sieve	File:RPS Drive 10 sieve.zip
# primes found	415 new , 69 confirmed
External link	MersenneForum

k-history

• if any

n-history

• if any

Notes

• The range 425000 < k < 525200 was done by LLRnet-server IB2000 (maintained by David James) unless a remark is given.
• The range 525200 < k < 600000 was done by LLRnet-server GB6000 (maintained by Gary Barnes).
• k = 2041 was excluded from search (tested by David Stevens)
• k = 2055, 2085, 2115, 2175 were excluded from search (tested by Steven Tjung)
• The planned higher n-range of 650000 was lowered to 600000 due to less contribution power.

Remarks

• Any suggestions for more/other data?
• Examples of done and ongoing (only one will be chosen if "Date end" is given).
• Included "Project" in table -> need to extract later, sane "Drive name"
• Included "Sieve"
• "Range history" and "Prime table" are not included here -> own sections/tables
• Not all fields have to be filled, empty fields will not displayed instead shown empty.
