The WebCL standard is still a work in progress, but the first experimental implementations have already arrived.

The company has also published some videos that demonstrate the efficacy of WebCL in action.
WebCL—not to be confused with WebGL—is a new Web standard that is being devised by the Khronos group. It will provide JavaScript bindings for OpenCL, a framework that allows software to offload general-purpose computing operations to a GPU. The goal behind WebCL is to bring OpenCL to the Web—making it possible for sophisticated Web applications to significantly accelerate computationally intensive workloads.
