OpenCL 1.1 announced - to be supported by AMD Fusion APUs (combined GPU & CPU acceleration)

Khronos announced OpenCL 1.1.

OpenCL 1.1 adds significant functionality for enhanced parallel programming flexibility, functionality and performance on the GPU and CPU including:

• New data types including 3-component vectors and additional image formats;
• Handling commands from multiple hosts and processing buffers across multiple devices;
• Operations on regions of a buffer including read, write and copy of 1D, 2D or 3D rectangular regions;
• Enhanced use of events to drive and control command execution;
• Additional OpenCL C built-in functions such as integer clamp, shuffle and asynchronous strided copies;
• Improved OpenGL interoperability through efficient sharing of images and buffers by linking OpenCL and OpenGL events.
