/// \class event
/// \brief An event corresponding to an operation on a compute device
///
/// Event objects are used to track operations running on the device (such as
/// kernel executions and memory transfers). Event objects are returned by the
/// various \c enqueue_* methods of the command_queue class.
///
/// Events can be used to synchronize operations between the host and the
/// device. The \c wait() method will block execution on the host until the
/// operation corresponding to the event on the device has completed. The
/// status of the operation can also be polled with the \c status() method.
///
/// Event objects can also be used for performance profiling. In order to use
/// events for profiling, the command queue must be constructed with the
/// \c CL_QUEUE_PROFILING_ENABLE flag. Then the \c duration() method can be
/// used to retrieve the total duration of the operation on the device:
/// \code
/// std::cout << "time = " << e.duration<std::chrono::milliseconds>().count() << "ms\n";
/// \endcode
