Hi I was thinking this year could probably be a year with a lot of new specs published related to GPU world..
just released:
*OpenMP 4.0rc2 with accel device targets added
*OpenACC 2.0 brings GK110 cuda 5.0 features to directives world..
I expect OpenACC 2.0 support PGI imp in June which will also give support for MIC and AMD via OpenCL (so Intel HD5000 too in Windows version?)
also perhaps CAPS for summer..
Regarding OpenMP 4 I see Intel Fortran update with SIMD features already and perhaps some beta by summer for Intel CPUs (and Xeon Phi?) maybe production quality at SC13 both Intel compilers 2014 and some PGI beta..
Not so HPC world related, let's see:
*WebCL final spec should be coming soon.. let's see how fast they progress.. I would like to see optional 1.2 support with all new SA2012 exts for MSAA and depth sharing.. what troubles me is OpenCL extension mechanism for getting function address..
*WebGL 2.0 should be announced exposing OGL ES 3.0 to WebGL world.. I think ANGLE support is a year lagging.. I still would want a version with "destkop profile" with core support and number version setting (like 4.2 core) and optional extensions usage if wanted..
*OpenCL 2.0 for Siggraph?
*Dx 12? for Windows blue alpha this year at PDC (Oct-Nov 2012) I hope is a major revision spec with new DirectCompute features (recursion, pointers,etc..)..
*C++ AMP 2.0? new C++ AMP with function calls recursion separate compilation and pointer support would be good..
Khronos also is expected this year to bring:
*StreamInput for unified LeapMotion, Occulus and Kinect support among other things..
*OpenCV like api
Also next year with Maxwell expected DX12 support:
*OGL 5
*CUDA 6
and for mobile platforms we expect at least OGL ES 4.0..
