Khronos Launches SYCL 2020 Adopters Program & Open Source Conformance Test Suite

The Khronos Group announces the launch of the SYCL 2020 Adopters Program to enable implementations to become officially conformant to the latest-generation SYCL specification—and to ensure that SYCL is consistently implemented by multiple vendors to create a reliable platform for developers. SYCL 2020 is the open industry standard for single source C++-based heterogeneous parallel programming. The SYCL Working Group has released an updated Conformance Test Suite (CTS) as part of the SYCL 2020 Adopters Program, making it available as an open source GitHub project to enable broad industry participation in implementation testing and ongoing test suite improvements.
