PoCL 5.0 Released With Transparent OpenCL Over Networked Systems Capability

PoCL-Remote is the new code in PoCL 5.0 that allows for OpenCL to be transparently used across networked systems. Permitting OpenCL support on the other networked systems, PoCL-Remote allows seamlessly using OpenCL on those remote hosts. This PoCL-Remote handling is done over TCP/IP but there is no encryption/authentication so it's just intended for LAN uses. The performance also may not be all that great depending upon how latency sensitive your OpenCL application is and other possible performance bottlenecks.
