Re: Developing Multithreaded Applications
Hi Aaron and Dr Clay
I am aware of the Intel TBB library and am impressed by it's feature list and claimed performance gains. However in the face of OpenCL being more widely supported accross platforms in the near future, is the TBB library still relevant?
I understand that the TBB library operates at a much higher level and scales to the hardware it is run on, however i believe OpenCL implementations will also scale not only to the CPU but any hardware which supports OpenCL. This means that a software written using OpenCL would automatically utilise any additional hardware(like the GPU) if present.
If i were to begin working on a new software project, why should i choose the TBB library over OpenCL?
