+ <function>glDispatchCompute</function> launches one or more compute\r
+ work groups. Each work group is processed by the active program object for the compute\r
+ shader stage. While the individual shader invocations within a work group are\r
+ executed as a unit, work groups are executed completely independently and in\r
+ unspecified order. <parameter>num_groups_x</parameter>, <parameter>num_groups_y</parameter>\r
+ and <parameter>num_groups_z</parameter> specify the number of local\r
+ work groups that will be dispatched in the X, Y and Z dimensions, respectively.\r
