AMD APP (formerly ATI Stream) technology is a set of advanced hardware
and software technologies that enable AMD graphics processing cores
(GPU), working in concert with the system's x86 cores (CPU), to
accelerate many applications beyond just graphics.

This is AMD's implementation of OpenCL on top of Radeon hardware. You'll
need a compatible card and recent Catalyst drivers. See 
http://developer.amd.com/sdks/AMDAPPSDK/pages/DriverCompatibility.aspx 
for a complete list of requirements.

NOTES:

1) The download links point to an EULA page that you have to accept in 
   order to download the files
2) This package is compatible only with x86 and x86_64 architectures.
3) By default, samples are not included in the final package. If you'd
   like to include them, use the SAMPLES environment variable:

   SAMPLES=yes ./amd-app-sdk.SlackBuild

Please read the README.SLACKWARE file for further information about this
package setup.

NOTE: the download is not wget-friendly as it points to a page where you
have to accept a license agreement.
