The presentations and video recordings from IWOCL 2026 are now available on the conference program page.

IWOCL 2026 brought together researchers and practitioners advancing OpenCL, SYCL, and heterogeneous computing. This year's program covered portability across GPU vendors, AI and LLM inference on OpenCL backends, safety-critical GPU programming, and much more.

IWOCL 2026 is next week!

Join the global OpenCL and SYCL community in Heilbronn, Germany (May 6–8) for the premier forum dedicated to open compute languages and heterogeneous platform programming. The program includes the latest technical talks, Khronos Working Group updates, application case studies, and ample opportunity to connect with peers across industry and academia.

Registration remains open: www.iwocl.org

See you there.

KernelFoundry: Hardware-aware evolutionary GPU kernel optimization

Someone has approached #Meshroom with a #SYCL implementation of the DepthMap part of the pipeline, which was restricted to #NVIDIA Hardware in the past.

This approach could enable Intel & AMD GPUs (and even CPUs) to execute Meshroom.

First tests show comparable results to the #CUDA implementation and I'm very excited!

OpenCL, SYCL и матрицы

В данной статье я описываю свой опыт разработки приложений с OpenCL/SYCL. Вычисления на видеокартах ассоциируются преимущественно с графикой, научными вычислениями и с недавних пор с нейросетями. Но чаще всего с графикой. Тем не менее, графические процессоры обладают свойствами, за счёт которых их очень удобно использовать в задачах, напрямую не связанных с перечисленным выше. И главное из этих свойств – массовый параллелизм. Самый краткий ввод в гетерогенное программирование: у нас есть две роли — хост и девайс , задача хоста – формировать задачи и отдавать их на девайс, в то время как задача девайса обработать их и вернуть результат. При этом хост и девайс могут быть одним вычислительным устройством (это не обязательно CPU + GPU, так как CPU может отдавать задачи сам себе).
