With the broad deployment of multicore processors, there are increasing demands to port OpenCL programs written for GPUs onto the multicore processors. However, OpenCL programs written for GPUs cannot run efficiently on multicore processors since GPU-oriented OpenCL programs generally consist of a huge number of threads. This paper presents experimental comparisons of three thread execution methods for GPU-oriented OpenCL programs on multicore processors using a set of industry-oriented OpenCL benchmark programs.
