Nevermind. I found the BOINC 7.7/7.8 Change Log thread: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=11539#77013

Although the website is still functioning POEM@Home is now a retired project and should be removed from the list of BOINC projects.

Good news!

Anne has posted a pdf copy of her book for free download on academia.com. Free registration is required.

After 18 months the e-rights reverted back to her, so she created an e-book that is available through Amazon.com for 2.99.

She also intends to create a personal website linked from her Trinity College directory page where any books/articles that she publishes can be accessed for free.
7) Message boards : GPUs : Different projects and PCI-e bandwidth usage (Message 70315)

Post:
Win 10 + GPU-Z 0.8.8
2500k + GTX760 + AMD 7970

The 760 is running Primegrid (Cuda PPS Sieve) and the 'Bus Interface Load ' appears to fluctuate between 1-3%.

The 7970 running Collatz and POEM@home. GPU-Z does not present any bandwidth information.

Both GPUs use custom app_config.xml files. The 7970 runs 2 POEM tasks at a time and the 760 runs 2 PPS Seive tasks. When the 7970 is on Collatz it runs 1 task at a time.

Let me know if I can provide any other information. I will be traveling later this week, so forgive any delayed response.

I was hoping the POEM team would provide a status update via their twitter account : https://twitter.com/poem_at_home

Given how the server seems to have just disappeared, I'm betting this is a networking issue with Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.

They've been quite stable in the past, so this downtime and lack of communication is odd. I've chosen to suspended the project until further notice. Hopefully they can right the server in the coming week.

POEM@Home was testing a Intel GPU app, but it appears they are still tweaking the test server and application algorithm. It may be worth checking back in the next couple months....
