Many thanks for reply...
But could you please let me know where should I write this command? I am using windows 8 and I am able to open only Quartus. I am not able to run OenCL SDK. I followed every instuction of "Getting started from ALTERA"- Mark as New

You have to open a command prompt, in the start menu search for cmd, right click->run as administrator
Then enter the command.- Mark as New

Then it looks like OpenCL was not installed. I assume you followed the getting started guide. Did you get any errors during installation?

Let me give you all Detail:
My PC has below system properties: OS : Windows 8 Pro RAM: 4 GB System type:64 Bit, X-86 based processor. Now as per manual, Devloper need 24 GB RAM, So in this case am I work as devloper? If yes then Do I need 24GB RAM? I have installed Quartus and Altera Open CL SDK , didnt get any error during installation. Quartus is working fine but OpenCL is not working. e.g. I click on Open CL program , it opens with a terminal window for a msec and close it byself. I checked in installed program, and OpenCL SDK is there. One more thing I would like to clarify is, I will write C code for FPGA board and using OpenCL SDK I will be able to load program in to FPGA board, Am I understand correct? Just for Info: I havent connected any FPGA board with my Pc. Is it okay to work on OpenCL without board? Thanks for reply.- Mark as New

Ckncerning the RAM, as you will generate the hardware, yes you are a developer. The ammou t of RAM needed depends on your design and target chip. You can try with 4GB, but it miht not be enough, I work with an Arria 10, which needs 64 GB, that is the only rference I got.
You don't write C, you write OpenCL, which is C with some added functionality, and some "removed" functionality. In the case of not having a board, I think you can use the emulator. Please see this thread:http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=51433. I also think you don't need much RAM for that, but I haven't checked that.- Mark as New

Oh, and the OpenCL SDK has only command-line tools, no GUI (as far as I know). The reason for the window disappearing is that a command prompt closes as soon as aocl is started as you don't provide any arguments. If you want to know what these are, start a command prompt and enter the following command: aocl. This calls the aocl.exe from the hld\bin directory in the altera(_pro) install directory.

Sorry, didn't see your last post. I have no idea about the ammount of memory needed for that board. As to the development of the code, I use Microsofts Visual Studio, but any text editor and compiler will do. The OpenCL SDK is only used to compile and emulate the device.
