-SOCL is an extension that aims at implementing the OpenCL standard on
-top of StarPU. It allows to gives a (relatively) clean and
-standardized API to StarPU.
-By allowing OpenCL applications to use StarPU transparently, it
-provides users with the latest StarPU enhancements without any further
-development, and allows these OpenCL applications to easily fall back
-to another OpenCL implementation.
+SOCL is an OpenCL implementation based on StarPU. It gives a unified access to
+every available OpenCL device: applications can now share entities such as
+Events, Contexts or Command Queues between several OpenCL implementations.
 
-This section does not require detailed knowledge of the StarPU
-library.
+In addition, command queues that are created without specifying a device provide
+automatic scheduling of the submitted commands on OpenCL devices contained in
+the context to which the command queue is attached.
 
 Note: as of StarPU @value{VERSION}, this is still an area under
 development and subject to change.
