AMD Core Math Library for Graphic Processors (ACML-GPU) provides an ATI Stream-accelerated version of ACML. ACML-GPU accelerates certain routines in ACML, such as SGEMM and DGEMM, by off-loading the computation to the compatible GPUs in the system. The library dynamically decides, based on the parameters passed to the routines, whether to run the computation on the CPU or GPU, depending on which processor will yield the best performance.

ACML-GPU automatically scales its computation across multiple GPUs, if available and can take advantage of the double precision floating point hardware in the GPU on products that contain hardware DPFP support.

New for v1.1:

    * Support for the latest AMD graphics cards
    * GPU acceleration of complex matrix multiply BLAS routines
    * libCALBLAS sample source
