NOTE: I have informed that GSIS does not work with SETI@home client Ver3.08. I personally don't use OS 9 anymore, so it will take time to fix the problem.

Overview of GSIS-ver0.3(revised October 7th, 2000) and 0.23(revised June 12th,2000) by Goro Otsubo

GSIS is data crunching and logging program for SETI@home client. Since it is written in Applescript, GSIS can be used only on Macintosh.

GSIS has following functions.

*It can download more than one work units from the SETI server

*As long as there are work units which have not been analyzed, it can continue analysis by changing work units. GSIS can log the data also.

SETI Unit Manager (SUM) is a similar program written in Applescript, and has a lot more functions. However, compared to SUM, GSIS has two major characteristics.

First of all, it is free. You don't have to donate work units to other account than yours. Second of all, you can see the source code of GSIS.In Japanese SETI@home mailing list, we discussed about the merit and demerit of using SUM, and came to the conclusion that we can develop our own program which has similar function and absolutely free.

GSIS is free, but please use it at your own risk. I, Goro Otsubo, can not be held responsible, in any way , for lost work units or for any incidental, indirect, or consequential damages.

If you have any comments or suggestion, please send e-mail to

"GSIS" stands for "Goro's SIS". Goro is my first name. SIS stands for "SETI Intercept System". Or you can read it as "SIS Is not SUM".

GSIS is still Beta phase. It may have a lot of bugs. So please, please be careful when using this program

Important :

If you are using SETI@home Ver2.X client, please use GSIS 0.23

If you are using SETI@home Ver3.x client, please use GSIS 0.3
