Ksetiwatch is a software tool that serves as a monitor and manager for SETI@home work units.
Ksetiwatch is a monitoring tool tailored for the Seti@home distributed computing project. This project aims to detect signals of extraterrestrial life, and Ksetiwatch helps users keep track of the state of the Seti@home client(s) running on their computer or local network. This software also allows for the logging and management of completed work units and interesting signals found.
One of the standout features of Ksetiwatch is its skymap that shows all processed work units. Additionally, Ksetiwatch provides a graphical display of scientific data such as gaussians, pulses, and triplets. Detailed status information about a client can be found on the dock icon, and users can start or stop SETI@home clients whenever they choose.
Another useful tool for monitoring the progress of the Seti@home client is SetiContainer. This C++ class provides access to all information in the state files of a SETI@home client. SetiContainer periodically examines these files and updates its data members accordingly. With this class, users can extract information about the progress of the client, signals found, or the work unit being processed.
SetiContainer also offers advanced info like the amount of TeraFlops in a work unit and the estimated time of completion. The class is based on the Qt toolkit and uses Qt's Signal/Slot extensively. This means users can expect high-quality software that is both efficient and reliable. Overall, Ksetiwatch and SetiContainer are powerful tools for monitoring the progress of the Seti@home project, making them a must-have for any serious SETI@home user.
