💻 API Usage

#include "sycl_wrapper.hpp"

int main() {
    // Initialize — auto-selects best GPU
    auto& ctx = avm::sycl::SYCLContext::instance();
    ctx.initialize();
    // GPU: "NVIDIA CUDA" CU: 128 MEM: 24 GB

    // DCT 8x8 transform
    int16_t input[64] = {...};
    int32_t output[64];
    avm::sycl::fdct8x8(ctx.queue(), input, output);

    // SAD 16x16 motion estimation
    uint8_t ref[256], cur[256];
    uint32_t sad = avm::sycl::sad16x16(ctx.queue(), ref, cur);

    return 0;
