July 2016 competitions

[Dirk Broer]

July has come, a traditionally (?) weak challenge month. Everybody is away on holidays, or planning to do so soon it seems. Even CRUNCHERS SANS FRONTIERES have taken a break, but Gridcoin have come to the rescue! What do we have left? First a carry-over:


June 25 to July 02 - Euler Race
Rechenkraft wants us to try Yafu for a week.
Careful: this project may try to grab all your cores to run a WU!
(apps for 4, 8 and 16 cores/threads are there, for the unwary)

July 01 to July 08 - Summer work
The GPU Users Group wants us to run the oldest project of them all: Seti@Home.
