OpenCL is short for Open Computing Language. OpenCL is a Framework for parallel programming across heterogeneous platforms, called compute devices, ranging from CPUs over GPUs to more special platforms like FPGAs. OpenCL provides a standard interface for parallel computing on these compute devices b...

If you have a modern CPU or graphics card (GPU) inside your machine, chances are you have everything ready for first steps in OpenCL. Finding out if your processor is OpenCL capable can be usually done via the manufacturer's homepage, a good first start is the official documentation at https://www...

Open Computing Language (OpenCL) is a framework for writing programs that execute on CPUs, GPUs, and other parallel processors and accelerators. OpenCL specifies a programming language (based on C) that provides access to named on-chip memory, a model for executing tasks in parallel, and the abilit...

OpenCL is low level api so it must be implemented in "C space" first. For that, one needs to download header files from Khronos' site. My hardware is AMD and capable of version 1.2, downloading opencl.h cl_platform.h cl.h cl_ext.h cl_egl.h cl_dx9_media_sharing.h cl_d3d10.h c...

For C# there exist many wrappers that offer an interface to communicate with OpenCL. OpenCL.NET: This is one of the most low level wrappers out there. It offers a complete implementation of the OpenCL API for C# without adding any abstraction at all. So C\C++ examples are easily ported for this ...
