What is Distributed Hardware Evolution Project?
BOINC @ DHEP IS CURRENTLY IN BETA!
DHEP allows you to host an island running a Genetic Algorithm in a coevolutionary setting synthesising future super-reliable electronics such as those used in autonomous vehicles, power stations, medical equipment, aerospace. These are of increasingly paramount importance as more and more human lives rely on well functioning hardware.
Observation of population dynamics will also help us understand Evolution, not only to harness it to reach 'better than human' designs, but also to learn how migration rates, genetic diversity and the inner mechanisms of genetic recombination have concerted to reach the biodiversity and wonder of living organisms today.
DHEP is based at the University of Sussex.

My observations so far on the project:
1) Run the project at your own risk as it is barely out of ALFA testing. Things can break and/or change without notice.
2) Project is still in the VERY EARLY BETA TESTING STAGE with a few annoying problems that need to be worked out.
3) Project is NOT exporting stats, but is granting (very high) BOINC credits on it's web site.
4) Tasks run "forever" and will be running in EDF (Earliest Deadline First) aka "PANIC MODE".
5) Tasks take up a full thread running a Java based applet that needs a window open to do its calculations. You can minimize the open windows but if you close the window, the task crashes and ends.
6) The Java applet can make some computers sluggish to respond to mouse click and/or keystrokes.
7) Active task(s) send a trickle-up message every 15 minutes to the project server.

There have been no updates here on BoincStats for many days now! Why?

Waiting on permission to publish stats form project owner.
Willy will not publish stats for any new project until the project OWNER GIVES EXPLICIT PERMISSION TO DO SO.
EDIT: A post has been placed on project web site informing project owner to approve posting of the project stats.
Project owner has replied saying he is NOT READY FOR STATS EXPORT YET -- see http://dhep.ga/boinc/forum_thread.php?id=15.

OK, that explains it!
Hope they'll be ready soon, cos it's a very interesting project! :-)
Thanx for the fast response, and a good answer/link!
Nice day!!

The project admin requested to not publish the stats.
Please do not PM, IM or email me for support (they will go unread/ignored). Use the forum for support.

Hello,
Now that all niggles have been sorted and people are happy crunching our tasks, we'd like to announce we're in Production state and are happy for our stats to be exported.
Kind regards,
Michael

Did not see any prior notice/warning on project web site before it went down. Domain and IP address are unreachable. Will have to just wait and see for it to reappear.
I have heard that the project has been shutdown due to an issue with funding. It is uncertain whether it will be restarted and if so when.
Note that I don't have a source for this, it is just something that I have heard from another user who I trust.

@G_UK We reached out to Dr. Garvie about the DHEP outage, and he responded that it is shutdown until they secure funding. This was very sudden and disappointing.

From the DHEP forums:
Hello everyone,
Unfortunately we are having to suspend DHE until we secure funding. A big thanks to all of you who crunched for our project, the BOINC team, and a special thanks to those who volunteered with us in many ways.
All the best,
Michael
