[Bf-cycles] HSA

[Nazim Mer]

AMD Fusion is the marketing name for a series of APUs by AMD, aimed at
providing good performance with low power consumption, and integrating a
CPU and a GPU based on a mobile stand-alone GPU. There has subsequently
been a disagreement between Arctic (formerly Arctic Cooling) and AMD over
the use of the "Fusion" brand name. AMD has thus changed Fusion to
Heterogeneous Systems Architecture (HSA).[1] Fusion was announced in 2006
and has been in development since then. The final design is the product of
the merger between AMD and ATI, combining general processor execution as
well as 3D geometry processing and other functions of modern GPUs (like
GPGPU computation) into a single die.[2] This technology was shown to the
general public in January 2011 at CES. Second-generation "Trinity" parts
are expected in June 2012.[3][4]
