Thanks! This are really useful. (I'm actually now making a small dsl for distributing work on accelerators.) I personally really like the idea from the the Halide language, having one language for algo, another for how the computation is done.

Take a look at http://aparapi.github.io/ http://aparapi.github.io/ it one of the best examples of making OpenCL a first class citizen in Java.
