According to https://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/GPU_computing, the current BOINC should be able to detect and use your GPU just fine. If it doesn't, you may need to install Intel's own graphics driver from https://01.org/linuxgraphics/. According to the BOINC page, the Intel chips use OpenCL so, in theory, once you've got that working any OpenCL application should work just as well.
