A) I would like to learn about CUDA/OpenCL/Khronos libraries and how to
build software for GPU processing.  

For example, bitcracker [1] for BitLocker recovery password cracking. :-)
I managed to somehow build a CUDA version after buying a NVidia card, 
but what library can I use for OpenCL? 
Is there OpenCL library/driver for Intel graphics chips?

B) Random number generators.
Currently using python random library to generate candidate passwords. 
Should one care about the randomness and uniformity of distribution?
