+<p>Polly can use <a href="http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~pouchet/software/pocc">
+PoCC</a> as an external optimizer. PoCC is a research project that provides
+an integrated version of <a href="http://pluto.sf.net">Pluto</a>, an
+advanced data-locality and tileability optimizer. Similar functionality was
+recently integrated in Polly (through isl), however the optimizations are not as
+mature as the ones in Pluto/PoCC. Hence, if you want to use Pluto to optimize
+your code or you want to compare the optimizer integrated in Polly to Pluto you
+may want to use PoCC.</p>
