Overview of the algorithms

[Chick3nman]

For many of these, there isn't an "easy to understand" primitive algorithm/construction. That's part of why many have names from where they are used/found. If you want to try and understand each of the algorithms/constructions you will need to review the kernel source in /OpenCL/, which is going to be further complicated as often we implement partial/incomplete algorithms/constructions for performance reasons or to exploit weaknesses.
