[LLVMdev] AESOP autoparallelizing compiler

[陳韋任 (Wei-Ren Chen)]

Hi Timothy,

Since we currently have only a 2-person development team, we are still on LLVM 3.0, and some of the code could use some cleanup. Still, we hope that the work will be of interest to some.

  Do you have data show us that how much parallelization the AESOP can
extract from those benchmarks? :)
