     15         <h4>Evolution of RenderScript Performance</h4>
     16       <p>Its been a year since the last blog post on RenderScript, and with the release
     17       of Android 4.2, its a good time to talk about the performance work that weve done
     18       since then. One of the major goals of this past year was to improve the performance
     19       of common image-processing operations with RenderScript.</p> </a>

     23         <h4>Levels in RenderScript</h4>
     24       <p>For ICS, RenderScript (RS) has been updated with several new features to simplify
     25         adding compute acceleration to your application. RS is interesting for compute
     26         acceleration when you have large buffers of data on which you need to do significant
     27         processing. In this example we will look at applying a levels/saturation operation
     28         on a bitmap.</p>

     33         <h4>RenderScript Part 2</h4>
     34         <p>In Introducing RenderScript I gave a brief overview of this technology.
     35           In this post Ill look at "compute" in more detail. In RenderScript we use
     36           "compute" to mean offloading of data processing from Dalvik code to
     37           RenderScript code which may run on the same or different processor(s).</p>
