Description-en: cross-platform C++ library for GPU computing
Boost.Compute is a GPU/parallel-computing library for C++ based on OpenCL.
.
The core library is a thin C++ wrapper over the OpenCL API and provides access
to compute devices, contexts, command queues and memory buffers.
.
On top of the core library is a generic, STL-like interface providing common
algorithms (e.g. transform(), accumulate(), sort()) along with common
containers (e.g. vector, flat_set). It also features a number of
extensions including parallel-computing algorithms (e.g. exclusive_scan(),
scatter(), reduce()) and a number of fancy iterators (e.g.
transform_iterator<>, permutation_iterator<>, zip_iterator<>).
.
This package provides the development files for the standalone compute
package.
