The Open Science Grid (OSG) is a distributed computing project founded in 2004. On August 5, 2022, apgsearch was approved as a project on the grid,[1] and the first hauls were submitted on August 9.[2]
Unlike Charity Engine, the Open Science Grid also includes GPU resources and can therefore run apgsearch's GPU symmetries. Because of this, only certain symmetries are supported, as 90-degree rotation and diagonal symmetry are difficult to implement in CUDA.[3] Additionally, GPU searching is optimized to recognize long-lasting soups, high-period oscillators, and nonstandard spaceships, while usually ignoring still lifes and diehards.
Starting on August 11, OSG has also contributed CPU resources to search randomly generated 5-glider collisions for the purpose of finding new glider syntheses.[4] The results can be found in the moog_stdin[note 1] symmetry.
