If you’re reading our blog, BLAS and FFT libraries likely form an important basis for your work. For instance, BLAS and FFT libraries are used in some of ArrayFire’s higher-level functions for linear algebra, signal processing, and image processing. Today, OpenCL is getting a significant boost in BLAS and FFT library availability. AMD has announced a bold and generous move to contribute to the OpenCL community by open-sourcing its APPML BLAS and FFT OpenCL libraries. At AccelerEyes, we have previously used AMD’s OpenCL libraries within our higher-level ArrayFire library. These libraries are the best BLAS and FFT OpenCL libraries available anywhere. We are thrilled to join AMD and the open-source community in maintaining and improving these libraries for the benefit of all. …
