The oneAPI Community Forum aims to bring individuals and organizations together to:

• Define a standards-based, cross-architecture open specification for accelerated computing
• Foster open-source implementations of the specification

The oneAPI Community Forum intends to use a light weight model of governance to facilitate straightforward collaboration for the oneAPI specification and open source implementations.

The current policies are documented on this page.

The Steering Committee is led by Rod Burns from Codeplay Software and meets quarterly.

The Steering Committee is responsible for leadership of the forum, including these activities:

• Agreeing and tracking annual goals for the oneAPI Community Forum
• Agreeing on the formation of new Working Groups and SIGs
• Reviewing votes from the Working Groups
• Owning and defining the intellectual property framework for contributions
• Ratifying new versions of the specification
• Approving the plans from the Marketing Committee

The SIGs exist to faciliate technical discussions that are highly relevant to bring positive change to the oneAPI specification and the implementations of its elements.

SIG activities include the following:

• Open technical discussions relevant to specific technologies and the oneAPI specification
• Facilitating discussion and presentation of proposals

New SIGs can be proposed by members of the community.

The oneAPI Community Forum Working Groups (WGs) exist to facilitate modifications to the oneAPI specification.

Working Groups will be formed in early 2023. These can be proposed by members of the oneAPI Community Forum SIGs.

The Marketing Committee meetings are open to anyone. The committee owns the definition and execution of the marketing strategy, steers the content on the website, coordinates event activities and coordinates marketing activities between the community.

The Marketing Committee is led by Alison Richards.
