Hi, Benjamin
if browser have a capability to run some application with
data-intensive parallel computing . some applications required data-intensive
parallel computing can works on websit.
such as 3D movie, 3D game... etc, this can give developer a way that
developer don't care which devices the application will run, this can
shorten the application development sycle, speedup the application deployment
and reduce costs.
maybe the browser will to be a runtime container which can provide a rumtime
for those applications that have run on various OS.
Cheers,
Oneal

I am very curious about the source of interest in OpenCL on browser. While
OpenCL is a great technology, I have the feeling it is not ready for the web.
What kind of applications do you foresee being powered by OpenCL on the Web?
I can imagine some use of CPU based kernels for the web (for image manipulation
for example). But I have a hard time seeing how adding full support of OpenCL
would not be shooting ourself in the foot at this point. That may change in the
future when GPU hardware converges...
Cheers,
Benjamin
