OpenCL
OpenCL (Open Computing Language) is an open, royalty-free standard for cross-platform parallel programming of heterogeneous computing systems that lets developers accelerate computing tasks by leveraging diverse processors such as CPUs, GPUs, DSPs, and FPGAs across supercomputers, cloud servers, personal computers, mobile devices, and embedded platforms. It defines a programming framework including a C-based language for writing compute kernels and a runtime API to control devices, manage memory, and execute parallel code, giving portable and efficient access to heterogeneous hardware. OpenCL improves speed and responsiveness for a wide range of applications including creative tools, scientific and medical software, vision processing, and neural network training and inferencing by offloading compute-intensive work to accelerator processors.

IronFunctions
IronFunctions is an open source serverless platform, also known as a Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform, that allows developers to write functions in any language and deploy them across various environments, including public, private, and hybrid clouds. It supports AWS Lambda function formats, enabling seamless import and execution of existing Lambda functions. Designed for both developers and operators, IronFunctions simplifies coding by allowing the creation of small, focused functions without the need to manage the underlying infrastructure. Operators benefit from efficient resource utilization, as functions consume resources only during execution, and the platform's scalability is managed by adding more IronFunctions nodes as needed. It is built using Go and leverages container technologies to handle incoming workloads by spinning up new containers, processing the payloads, and returning responses.

WebGL
OpenGL ES for the Web. WebGL is a cross-platform, royalty-free web standard for a low-level 3D graphics API based on OpenGL ES, exposed to ECMAScript via the HTML5 Canvas element. Developers familiar with OpenGL ES 2.0 will recognize WebGL as a Shader-based API using GLSL, with constructs that are semantically similar to those of the underlying OpenGL ES API. It stays very close to the OpenGL ES specification, with some concessions made for what developers expect out of memory-managed languages such as JavaScript. WebGL 1.0 exposes the OpenGL ES 2.0 feature set; WebGL 2.0 exposes the OpenGL ES 3.0 API. WebGL brings plugin-free 3D to the web, implemented right into the browser. Major browser vendors Apple (Safari), Google (Chrome), Microsoft (Edge), and Mozilla (Firefox) are members of the WebGL Working Group. Google Groups and StackOverflow discussions on developing with WebGL.
