-First, you need to set the value of the parameter ‘Number of blocks’, which is required by submission of one BGQ job. The recommended value is the prepopulated 1Optionally, you can also choose to simultaneously estimate radiation doses that the samples were exposed to while processing the sample setby selecting a calibration curve on the BGQ server with the ‘Select’ button. +First, you need to upload the calibration curves and image selection models that will be used for dose estimation on the sample set from your local computer to the server, which can be accomplished by the bottom area of the right panelIn the bottom areathe left tree shows the contents on the computer you are using; the right tree shows the contents in your BGQ account. In the left treelocate and select the calibration curves and image selection models; in the right tree, select a destination directory to which the files will be uploaded, then click the middle 'Upload' button. The recommended destination directory 'CalibrationCurves' is selected and expanded by default.
  
-Upon selection of curve, the image selection model associated with the curve will be automatically displayed in the ‘Image selection model’ text field. You can also use the ‘Change’ button to change the model that is associated with the curve. Use the bottom area of the right panel to first upload the curves and models.+<WRAP group>

 +Then you need to set the value of the parameter ‘Number of blocks’, which is required by submission of one BGQ job. The recommended value is the prepopulated '1'. Optionally, you can also choose to simultaneously estimate radiation doses that the samples were exposed to while processing the sample set, by selecting one or more calibration curves on the BGQ server using the ‘Select’ button. After clicking this button, the popped-up remote file chooser will only show the curve files on the serverand the recommended 'CalibrationCurves' directory will also be automatically selected and expanded. 
 + 
 +The selected curve files will be filled into the drop-down list, and the image selection model associated with the curve currently being selected in the drop-down list will be displayed in the ‘Image selection model’ text field. Selection of another curve will result in an update of the ‘Image selection model’ text field. After initially uploading the curve and selection model files, presumably the curve file is incorrect in that the contained path to the associated image selection model is still for the local computer instead of the server. In this case, the software will immediately pop up a prompt dialog to tell you to correct the wrong curves; if you select a wrong curve file in the drop-down list, a similar information dialog will also appear and the background color of the ‘Image selection model’ text field will become redCorrecting the curve files can be accomplished using the 'Change' button; clicking it will result in the appearance of a file chooser dialog that only shows the image selection model files on the server, allowing you to select the correct model that the curve should use.

 +===== Download result matrices of samples in a processed sample set =====
  
 +After finishing processing a sample set, you can download the result matrices of the contained samples to your local computer, then you can open them and perform further processing in the desktop ADCI software (e.g. estimating doses using additional calibration curves). To do this, first click the processed sample set in the scenario tree, then click the 'Download result matrices' menu item under the 'Run' menu. In the appearing file chooser dialog, select a destination directory on your local computer.
