Post by michael_borland » 04 Mar 2017, 17:49

Version 33.0 of elegant has been released.

This version contains signficant bug fixes and feature enhancements. For details, see the manual.

A significant development is the first release of the GPU-enabled code, originally developed by Tech-X Corporation (J. R. King, et al., “Current status of the GPU-Accelerated version of elegant,” Proc. IPAC15, 623 (2015)) with further work by Bob Soliday at APS. At present, the GPU-enabled version is only available for selected linux distributions. A Windows version is expected shortly.

A new version 33.0.3 was released today that fixes a bug in gpu-elegant. There are other known bugs in gpu-elegant that still need to be addressed. If you use gpu-elegant while it is in alpha release, please double check your results with the standard elegant or Pelegant.
