Dear Tesfaye,

unfortunately the current version of the code does not support checkpointing. If your thermalization time is short compared to the typical power interruption time, try this: Run short simulations with different seeds (parameter SEED=XXX) but the same input data and then average the results in the end. So instead of running one 24-h simulation run four 6h-simulations with four different seeds.

That way, if your power cuts out, you will never lose more than 6h of work.

Best,

Emanuel

Dear ALPS developers/ Users

I am using alps CT-QMC . But because of  power intruption  it is seldom to finalize the the simulation. Is there a way to restart the simulation from where it is stopped ?
