              Weekly Report Mar.7-Apr.13

Done:
1. A prototype has been worked out. Up to now, applications can be dispatched from swift to BOINC normally, and the results can also be returned correctly after the jobs are computed by BOINC.

Issues
2. A lot parameters required by BOINC are not added at this moment, such as deadline, and resource consuming specification, etc. It seems that Swift is not very open to add additional parameters.

To Do:
1. Test and debug the system;
2. Update the design document;
3. Draft a document about how to write and modify providers.
