As the title suggests, I've been interested lately in parallel computing, the possible applications, and how can you explode the processing potential of a computer. There are few options out there in regards to programming languages/libraries to allow programmers developing their tools and applications using a parallel programming model. As I have a computer equipped with an AMD video card, my natural choice was OpenCL. After struggling with the video card drivers, and giving up to ignore the invitation of Microsoft to upgrade my OS to windows 10 (which by the way is better than I expected), I was able to install the [ AMD sdk ] and run the hello world program.
