FPGA performances and complexity increases exponentially and continuously. Each successive FPGA generations provide bigger and bigger matrixes, more and more embedded hardware operators (memory ...

OpenCL defines an Installable Client Driver (ICD) mechanism to allow developers to build applications against an Installable Client Driver loader (ICD loader) rather than linking their applications ...

This chapter introduces a programming model called Open Computing Language (OpenCL). It emphasizes OpenCL for the KeyStone rather than other devices. The main idea for writing an OpenCL application is ...

OpenCL is introduced in this context (in this first part of the article), and a sample application is presented (in the second instalment of the article), together with indications on setting up the ...

To use OpenCL, we must understand how OpenCL abstracts the real world devices so that we can program with it. The OpenCL standard had a bad choice of words that overlaps other things. For example, ...

Introduction to OpenCL: A Versatile Framework for Parallel Computing OpenCL (Open Computing Language) is an open standard for writing programs that execute across heterogeneous platforms, including ...
