Snapdragon Neural Processing Engine.  Pronounced "snap-e".  Its
basically the framework someone goes through to run a neural network
on a Qualcomm mobile SoC.  SNPE can utilize various hardware resources
such as the applications CPU, GPU, and dedicated compute resources
such as a NSP, if available.  Its been around for over a year, and
much more information can be found by just doing a simple search since
SNPE is pretty much a unique search term currently.
