    Einstein@Home - Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo) ???

    Does anybody know if this is a CPU Wu or a GPU Wu, I'm at 9800 Hr's on it & haven't seen any work for it in a long time even though I have my Einstein Preferences set to a High Resource Value ... Thanks

    On Windows machines this runs on Intel GPU. Good luck!

    There are two Arecibo apps, one for GPU and one for CPU. http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/apps.php

    Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo, GPU)
    Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo)

    I tried to check the server status to see if there was any work for the CPU version of that app. Of course they name the apps something completely different on the server status page (why do projects do that?), so it's impossible to decode.

    So then I tried getting some work on a windows machine. The neat thing about Einstein, it will show you the server log URL in your even log. This is what mine shows:

    it looks like something is messed up. My machine is asking for CPU work, but then the server returns with "No Intel GPU devices found".

    And that leads me back to the apps page. The two apps for windows are:

    Windows/x86 1.34 (opencl-intel_gpu) 2 Sep 2013 13:37:10 UTC
    Microsoft Windows running on an AMD x86_64 or Intel EM64T CPU 1.34 (opencl-intel_gpu) 9 Jul 2013 8:28:34 UTC

    They made the apps OpenCL. That SHOULD be okay, as OpenCL is supposed to be able to run on both CPUs and GPUs. But the server thinks it is only for GPUs for some reason.

    Looks like you will need to post something in their forums to see what the problem is. Maybe they aren't even aware.

    Here are the BRPS apps with corresponding server names:

    Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo) BRP4
    Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo, GPU) BRP4G
    Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Perseus Arm Survey) BRP5

    I'm currently crunching Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo) on an Intel GPU. As far as I know, there are no BRPS CPU apps.

    The app at the bottom of the apps page is for CPUs only. The two apps for windows are OpenCL, which should be fine as OpenCL runs on CPUs as well as GPUs. But their server is messed up, I believe. It thinks the client must have an OpenCL GPU, when it really does not.

    I'm calling for Intel GPU Work now but haven't received any yet, all I need to do is run a few day's to get to 10,000 Hr's on that App ...

    Just checking, do you have a CPU with ivy bridge (HD 4000) or later? Also, do you have the intel OpenCL GPU driver installed? Finally, does BOINC see your Intel GPU (HD 4000 or later) in the event log when it starts?

    This is what mine looks like, I have Intel GPU selected in project preferences and I'm getting work.

    Maybe I don't have a late enough version of the Intel Open CL ?
