The backward-compatible spec enables applications to incrementally use new features while portably accessing state-of-the-art GPUs across diverse operating systems and platforms. The OpenGL 4.4 spec brings the latest graphics functionality to highly advanced, widely adopted 2D and 3D graphic application programming interface (API). By releasing the spec in provisional form, developers and implementers can provide feedback before specification finalization (expected within six months). OpenCL 2.0 defines an enhanced execution model and a subset of the C11 and C++11 memory model, synchronization, and atomic operations. Expectations for the new evolution of the open, royalty-free OpenCL 2.0 standard are further simplification of cross-platform parallel programming while easily accelerating a richer range of algorithms and programming patterns. VIDEO CARD: Integrated: Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Ivy Bridge) or AMD Radeon R5 series (Kaveri line) with OpenGL 4.41Discrete: Nvidia GeForce 400 Series or AMD Radeon HD 7000 series with OpenGL 4.

The Group also announced release of the OpenGL 4.4 specification.

The OpenCL 2.0 provisional specification has been ratified and subsequently given a public release, according to The Khronos Group. While it is by default offering raster-image type of drawing you can switch its render target to OpenGL FramebufferObject: QPainter paints into a QOpenGLFramebufferObject using the GL paint engine.
