{{otheruses|OneAPI (disambiguation)}}
'''oneAPI''' is an [[open standard]], adopted by Intel,{{sfn|Fortenberry|Tomov|2022|p=22}} for a unified [[application programming interface]] (API) intended to be used across different computing [[Hardware acceleration|accelerator]] ([[coprocessor]]) architectures, including [[GPU]]s, [[AI accelerator]]s and [[field-programmable gate array]]s. It is an open, cross-industry, standards-based, unified, multi-architecture, multi-vendor programming model that delivers a common developer experience across [https://www.computer.org/csdl/magazine/mi/2008/04/mmi2008040004/13rRUwInvbR accelerator architectures] - for faster application performance, more productivity, and greater innovation. The oneAPI initiative encourages collaboration on the oneAPI specification and compatible oneAPI implementations across the ecosystem. It is intended to eliminate the need for developers to maintain separate code bases, multiple programming languages, tools, and workflows for each architecture.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hpcwire.com/2019/12/09/intel-expands-its-silicon-portfolio-and-oneapi-software-initiative-for-next-generation-hpc/|title=Intel Expands its Silicon Portfolio, and oneAPI Software Initiative for Next-Generation HPC|date=2019-12-09|website=HPCwire|language=en-US|access-date=2020-02-11}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hpcwire.com/2019/11/17/intel-debuts-new-gpu-ponte-vecchio-and-outlines-aspirations-for-oneapi/|title=Intel Debuts New GPU – Ponte Vecchio – and Outlines Aspirations for oneAPI|date=2019-11-18|website=HPCwire|language=en-US|access-date=2020-02-11}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.extremetech.com/computing/302284-sc19-intel-unveils-new-gpu-stack-oneapi-development-effort|title=SC19: Intel Unveils New GPU Stack, oneAPI Development Effort - ExtremeTech|website=www.extremetech.com|access-date=2020-02-11}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.servethehome.com/intel-one-api-to-rule-them-all-is-much-needed/|title=Intel One API to Rule Them All Is Much Needed to Expand TAM|last=Kennedy|first=Patrick|date=2018-12-24|website=ServeTheHome|language=en-US|access-date=2020-02-11}}</ref>
