![]() The AP27 project now supports Intel ARC GPUs on both Windows and Linux. If you are not using graphics enabled BOINC client, you may use.Select which subprojects to run via the.We are also going to discuss the crucial challenges and how we are dealing with them. We will be disclosing more in the weeks ahead about our plans for both the near future and the years to come. We are aware that developing Golem will be extremely challenging but the progress we have made so far is really promising. Very soon, you are going to see more of what we have done so far. That is why we decided to make Golem Project software open source. This is much more important than it seems because infrastructure that could be arbitrarily turned off by someone is no good for the users. We will be responsible for design, upkeep, development etc., but the Golem Network will be fully autonomous, exactly as other p2p networks are. And that will truly change the way Internet is organised.įinally, the design of the Golem Network will be fully decentralised and that is why we use cryptocurrency for transactions. However, later we are going to transform the Golem Network into an infrastructure for decentralised internet and DApps. Cases with high demand for CPU/GPU power like CGI or CAD rendering, crypto mining and dozens of statistical, engineering or scientific applications are what we decided to start with. Secondly, the Golem Network will be much more than a solution to demanding computing tasks in business and science. This is going to be a direct deal between owners of idle machines and users seeking additional resources to compute their tasks. In contrast to existing systems, there will not only be a reward provided to users for contributing to the network, but also anyone interested will be able to pay for using its potential. Ethereum and ethers will be used as a basis for transactions and as the contracting system. Trading will be fast, automatic and secure. So what is really new about Golem? Well, a lot.įirst of all, we are going to add a market for computing resources to the equation. Using existing computers to do the hard job seems a very obvious idea and it is partly happening: or Boinc already have a computing potential comparable to that of the fastest supercomputers. We want to use your computer to do the job. We want to use the existing infrastructure to take over the job currently done by mainframes, computing farms and supercomputers. This is basically the starting point for us and our idea for changing the way the computing world is organised. It is inefficient both economically and environmentally. ![]() In fact, if you are not a CGI artist, a crypto miner, a software developer or anyone else from the flock of nerds always hungry for more powerful CPUs and GPUs, then the way you use your computer is just a waste of its potential. The point is that usually you would do just fine with a quarter of your computer’s resources, or even less, if you have a modern computer which you use for news, films, social media, e-mail or simple office tasks. ![]() And although I use my laptop a lot, it is idle most of the time.Įnough about numbers. When I open a spreadsheet, the CPU usage peaks for a few moments at 35% and then goes back to 2% and the memory is now at 33%. If I keep typing, this is unlikely to change, while both disk and network usage will remain close to 0%. When I am typing this, the CPU usage remains at a level between 0 and 4% and the memory usage is stable at 32%. In fact, it exceeds my need by a few-fold factor. For me, though, it is still more than powerful enough most times I use it. My computer is hardly a high-end one: it is a three-year old laptop with one of the USB ports broken and a shattered bottom-left corner of the screen. ![]()
