TAIPEI, TAIWAN — Throughout 2012 Khronos (www.Khronos.org) is hosting a Pan-Pacific-based series of press events, public educational sessions and private face-to-face meetings & dinners for Khronos members and prospective members.
The Khronos Group is a not for profit industry consortium that creates open standards for the authoring and acceleration of parallel computing, graphics and dynamic media on a wide variety of platforms and devices.
