Greetings,

About GPU WU..
I noticed that there are not any new BRG4G WU.
(Yes, there are the BPP6 (Parkes PMPS) available.)

Does anyone know if thee will be more BRP4G GPU WU coming?
In 2015?
In 2016?

Thanks, Jay

Nov 2015 - Any more BRP4G (Arecibo,GPU) WU expected

The rate of data production at Arecibo is less than the rate of crunching here so the data will only be available in short batches from time to time with periods of no availability in between. There is no accurate way of predicting when batches might arrive and how long the gaps might last for. The batches do tend to disappear fairly quickly.

Parkes data already exists and is predicted to last well into the latter half of next year at the current rate of consumption. Hopefully, we should be into the advanced LIGO data (probably CPU only) before the Parkes data runs out.

Cheers,
Gary.

Well that's one way to make the LIGO data last longer.
