OpenCL-Wrapper
OpenCL is the most powerful programming language ever created. Yet the OpenCL C++ bindings are cumbersome and the code overhead prevents many people from getting started. I created this lightweight OpenCL-Wrapper to greatly simplify OpenCL software development with C++ while keeping functionality and performance.
Somewhat unusual these days, but I mainly use OpenCL C. It's seems cumbersome and hard to learn at first, but becomes much more easy to use with the right tools. Once you master it, it whipes the floor with CPU programming; it's not unusual to see 100x speedup on a GPU compared to multithreaded CPU code at the same energy consumption. It's just as fast as CUDA - as efficient as the microarchitecture allows - but compatible with literally all GPU/CPU hardware of the last decade. No need to waste time on code porting if the next supercomputer has GPUs from a different vendor, it just runs out-of-the-box. Ideal for scientific compute!
