My community driven @thekhronosgroup GPU hardware databases for #Vulkan, #OpenGL, #OpenGLES and #OpenCL recently hit the 50,000 reports milestone.
Did a small write up on this, including some history on those databases at https://www.saschawillems.de/blog/2024/03/09/gpu-hardware-databases-hit-50000-reports/
Thanks to everyone who contributed (and is contributing) reports 😊

Vulkan is a cross-platform industry standard enabling developers to target a wide range of devices with the same graphics API. Vulkan is product put out by @thekhronosgroup a non-profit, member-driven consortium that provides a safe place for the creation of interoperability standards that enable developers to harness the full power of 3D graphics, virtual and augmented reality, parallel computing, machine learning, and vision processing.

The Vulkan SC SDK is now available -- one installer, all the tools you need for safety-critical graphics development on Linux and Windows. Less setup friction, more time building.

OpenCL 3.1 is here.
The Khronos Group has moved several capabilities into the core spec, including SPIR-V kernels, subgroups, and integer dot products.
Also includes improvements to the memory model and synchronization, plus better alignment with Vulkan via device UUID queries.
Implementations are already underway across major vendors and open source projects.

The OpenCL Working Group has published the first in a series of cooperative matrix extensions — and your feedback can help shape them before finalization.
cl_khr_cooperative_matrix brings cooperative matrix load, store, and multiply-add to OpenCL, developed with Arm, Intel, and Qualcomm. A companion OpenCL C language extension is also in RFC.
