First beta release of ATI Stream SDK with OpenCL GPU and CPU support
The new ATI Stream SDK v2.0 - beta 4 adds OpenCL GPU support as well as CPU support. This is a big milestone.
OpenCL is about accelerating applications on heterogeneous systems - ALL the processors in your system. With AMD’s beta 4 OpenCL implementation, you will be able to take one source code base and re-target it to your CPUs or GPUs - it will run on both - and take advantage of your entire platform. This means better balanced platforms capable of running demanding graphics, physics and general computing tasks faster and more scalably.
What is OpenCL?
OpenCL is the first truly open and royalty-free programming standard for general-purpose computations on heterogeneous systems. The AMD implementation allows programmers to easily target both multi-core CPUs and modern GPUs for acceleration.
