Made progress in Nexus 4 phone for using OpenCL in java & also made it to work with aparapi framework , so one can write pure java applications (using GPGPU & OpenCL) on the Nexus 4 devices. IMHO same approach can be used for any other future Android phones with proper OpenCL.so libraries deployed in the phones (without HW/SW vendor's SDKs).

The purpose of this article is to discuss how to incorporate GPU accelerated effects into a project without negatively impacting the overall performance and framerate of a game.
The key to making this work is to run all visual effects independently of the main game thread and rendering pipeline. While the concept is simple, as always, the devil is in the details and there are a lot of things to consider to make this work properly.
Kayla Platform
ARM Development Platform for CUDA® and OpenGL
Introducing the Kayla Platform for computing on the ARM architecture – where supercomputing meets mobile computing.
The Kayla platform is powered by an NVIDIA® Tegra® Quad-core ARM processor and a Kepler™ GPU to deliver the highest performance, highest efficiency for the next generation of CUDA and OpenGL application. Pre-installed with CUDA 5 and supporting OpenGL 4.3, it provides ARM applications development across the widest range of application types.
The object of this competition is to create a cool JavaScript "application" no larger than 1k. Starting out as a joke, the first version ended with a serious amount of submissions, prizes and quality.
Intel® Graphics Performance Analyzers (Intel® GPA) is a powerful, agile developer tool suite for analyzing and optimizing games, media, and other graphics-intensive applications. The product supports applications intended for the Windows* OS platforms or Intel® Atom™ based phones running the Android* OS. The toolset is a free download from the Intel GPA Home Page.
Available now, Intel GPA 2013 R1 adds these key features:
Significant enhancements have been made to the Geometry Viewer within the Intel GPA Frame Analyzer tool. The Geometry Viewer enables developers to view the input geometry at various shader stages (IA, HS/DS, VS, GS) for each draw call in a captured frame, and helps developers debug difficult performance bottlenecks or complex geometry rendering issues. More details on specific enhancements are included later in this article.
A new command-line tool, gpa_console_client, is now available for analyzing Android* OS workloads. With this tool you can automate many functions and features of the Intel GPA System Analyzer that were previously only available from the GUI.
Support has been added for new Intel® Atom™ based phones running the Android* OS, such as the Motorola RAZR I*. The full list of supported phones is available here.
A new tutorial, City Racer, has been added to demonstrate a "hands-on" approach to performance analysis and optimization. This tutorial presents a step-by-step guide to using Intel GPA for performance analysis, bottleneck identification, and rendering optimization of a D3D11 application. After installing Intel GPA, this tutorial with full source code can be found here: <install directory>\GPA\2013 R1\sdk\Samples\CityRacer
Intel GPA System Analyzer and Intel GPA System Analyzer HUD now support games and graphics applications using the DirectX* 11.1 API. Developers using the latest DirectX* API are now able to analyze and optimize their games for hardware platforms that support this API.
New version available 4.1.0 !
This version addresses some issues with Windows 8, and OpenGL 4.3 support for all the platforms.

ArionBench is a software tool that allows you to benchmark the computing performance of your machine.
ArionBench is based on Arion 2 Technology (RCSDK), so it is capable of putting your CPUs and/or GPUs under heavy stress, to see how fast they perform when they must face the task of simulating the flow of light in a 3D scene.
ArionBench, and the list of results that we keep on this page, are fantastic tools for generic hardware analysis. But moreover, they are particularly valuable for Arion users who need to make a decision as to what CPUs or GPUs to buy for optimal rendering performance.
Requirements
An x86 computer and (recommended) an nVidia CUDA video card
ArionBench can run on any modern 32-bit/64-bit computer. However, to benefit from hardware acceleration (GPU), a nVidia CUDA video card with sm_20 (or newer) compute capability is required. Any GeForce card of the 400 series (or newer) and the corresponding Tesla/Quadro models are supported.
The new family of advanced NVIDIA professional graphics is fueled by NVIDIA Kepler™—NVIDIA’s most powerful GPU architecture ever—delivering unprecedented performance and innovative capabilities to boost your success. Whether you’re creating revolutionary products, designing groundbreaking architecture, reviewing the fine details in a CT/MRI scan, or telling spectacularly vivid visual stories, NVIDIA professional solutions let you do it better and faster.
