SkelCL is a multi-GPU skeleton library based on OpenCL. It is actively
developed at the University of Münster, Germany, by Michel Steuwer and
others. For comments or questions feel free to contact the author:

Three key abstractions are made in this library:
  1) memory management is simplified using parallel container data types
     (vectors and matrices);
  2) an automatic data (re)distribution mechanism allows for implicit data
     movements between GPUs and ensures scalability when using multiple GPUs;
  3) computations are conveniently expressed using parallel algorithmic patterns
     (a.k.a. algorithmic skeletons).
