4) Message boards : News : Joint search of ODLS9 with Gerasim project (Message 1478) Posted 1 May 2021 by Bill F Post: Dear participants! A new search started in the project on September 27 - "Joint search of ODLS9 with Gerasim project". Earlier we performed a full search over the space of row-permutational diagonal Latin squares of order 9, but in this search (that we perform with Gerasim@Home project) we try to find all orthogonal diagonal Latin squares of order 9! At the first glance, the goal is unreachable, but the new search uses an heuristics that allowed to reduce the amount of computations. In this thread we will post news about the new search. I am involved in the Joint Search for ODLS9 my question is what is the future of this project and site. Will there be more work here or should we save the bandwidth, scheduling and electricity by deleting the RakeSearch project from our systems ? Thanks Bill F
5) Message boards : News : The last bunch of tasks were generated (Message 1306) Posted 1 Jun 2020 by Bill F Post: Your initial posting that the last batch of WU's had been distributed implied that the RakeSearch project was coming completely to an end, but did not actually say that it was. For clarity please state if we should expect any future projects / applications from RakeSearch or it we are free to remove the whole project from our BOINC clients. Thanks Bill F Dallas TX
