-- Limitation: Providing installs for all implemented parallelization strategies is mandantory at this point. Selective compilation of strategies might be added later if needed.

 ## Building the Project

 Similar to the STREAM benchmark´s Makefile, the vector sizes are defined by the preprocessor variable `VECTOR_SIZE` that can be set in the Makefile.
 
 ### Clean Up
@@ -158,11 +162,11 @@ To add a new kernel to the project, follow these steps:
 
 - Kernels must be registered with a **name** (e.g., `"vector_product"`) and should include the corresponding **allocations and data initialization** (`prepare`) and **kernel logic** (`execute`).
 - Kernels must consist out of an outer loop at least for now.
-- The kernel’s execution should be parallelizable using all of the available strategies (`omp` (OpenMP) and `eventify` (Eventify) for now). You can add more strategies by extending the `strategy` namespace.
+- The kernel’s execution should be parallelizable using all of the available strategies (`omp` (OpenMP) and `eventify` (eventify tasking library) for now). You can add more strategies by extending the `strategy` namespace.
 - The `VECTOR_SIZE` preprocessor variable defines the size of the input data and should be appropriate for the kernel you are implementing.
 
 ## Known Isuues and Limitations
-- The instantiation of Eventify's `task_system` is inckluded in the kernel timing, leading to a constant overhead compared to OpenMP. On NVIDIA Grace, this is 2.8 ms. It's ongoning discussion whether to include it or not.
