+<p>
+Ascenium is a fine-grained continuously reconfigurable processor that
+handles most instructions at hard-wired speeds while retaining the ability
+to be targeted by conventional high level languages, giving users "all the
+performance of hardware, all the ease of software."</p>
+
+<p>
+The Ascenium team prefers LLVM bytecodes as input to its code generator for
+several reasons:
+<ul>
+<li>LLVM's all inclusive format makes global optimizations and
+consolidations such as global data dependency analysis easy.</li>
+<li>LLVM's rich and strictly typed format generally make subtle and
+sophisticated optimizations easy.</li>
+<li>LLVM's great ancillary tools and documentation make it easy to
+work with -- even hardware geeks can understand it!</li>
