AccelerEyes, doing business as ArrayFire, is an American software company that develops programming tools for parallel computing and graphics on graphics processing unit (GPU) chipsets. Based in Atlanta, the company released Jacket,[1] a tool to compile MATLAB code for CUDA-enabled GPUs, in June 2008. In an October 2008 article,[2][dead link] the number of current Jacket users is said to be in the tens of thousands, and includes engineers and scientists in technology companies such as General Electric, Google, Toyota, and Morgan Stanley.
Company history
AccelerEyes was founded in June 2007 and produces software libraries for graphics processing unit (GPU) programming.[2] AccelerEyes has products for GPU computing in C, C++, Fortran, Python, and MATLAB.
Jacket is a software product that enables MATLAB code to run on the GPU, using CUDA or OpenCL.[3] Jacket builds high-level interfaces to remove the lower-level complexity of GPU programming.[4] This is accomplished by enabling MATLAB code to run on Nvidia, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), and other GPUs coprocessors. Jacket contains a runtime to automatically transform M-code for CUDA-enabled or OpenCL-enabled GPUs.
ArrayFire is a software library that enables C, C++ and Fortran code to run on the GPU.[5] There are two versions available, one for CUDA GPUs and one for OpenCL devices. ArrayFire was developed with funding from DARPA, who uses it in its "Memex" dark web search software.[6]
