SRBase is a BOINC platform volunteer computing project and needs your help to advance mathematical research.
Why SRBase?
- why this topic/object of study?
Goal
Solve Sierpinski / Riesel Bases up to 1030.
Methods
The project is in collaboration with the Mersenne CRUS project. The server is running on a private computer in a VM.
- Work reservation and preparation - http://www.mersenneforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=81 The link is used for any base reservation. This avoids any duplicate work from other users
- Work creation - All bases over 1M tests (lower ranges) will be split into pieces. Normally there are 2-3 batches, 25-50k, 50-60k, 60-100k. Most of the work is done in Excel
- Check results - merge all results to lresults.txt
- Remove primes from a sievefile with the srfile app
