OpenCL is a new technology in Snow Leopard that enables developers to utilize the computing power that exists in the graphics processor and use it for any application. Once developers start using OpenCL, a wide range of applications will see vast improvement in speed. OpenCL stands for Open Computing Language. OpenCL is a C-based programming language and its makeup will be common to programmers. They can easily use Xcode developer tools to alter their programs to work with OpenCL.
