Hi Kyle,
This seems interesting, but what would be the advantages over Thrust for example, which offers a very stl-like interface (not entirely sure if it is fully stl-compliant)?

Oops, guess I am wrong here. Taking a more thorough look at the thrust documentation it looks like different backends are indeed supported. OpenCL is an open standard which (in theory) is supposed to work on any device implementing it. Devices which support OpenCL range from CPUs to various GPUs, the upcoming Intel MIC accelerator and Cell
