[LLVMdev] European LLVM Developers' Meeting (EuroLLVM) - Edinburgh, April 7th-8th - Call for Contributions

[EuroLLVM Conference]

We are pleased to announce the 4th European LLVM conference on April
7th-8th 2014 in Edinburgh, Scotland.

This will be a full two-day conference which aims to present the latest
developments in the LLVM world and help strengthen the network of LLVM
developers and users. The format will be similar to that of the previous
meetings, with ample time for presentations, discussion, and networking
between participants. The meeting is open to anyone whether from industry
or academia, professional or enthusiast and is not restricted to those from
Europe - attendees from all regions are welcome. EuroLLVM 2014 will be held
at the University of Edinburgh's School of Informatics in the historic city
centre of Edinburgh, Scotland, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The latest information on the conference can be found at

Registration will open soon. A further announcement will be sent out when
registration is open.


*= Organisation = *
The public mailing list llvm-devmeeting at cs.uiuc.edu can be used to discuss
issues of general interest related to the conference organization. To
contact the conference organizers directly, you can email eurollvm at gmail.com
.


*= Financial Support =*
Limited financial support may be available to help students or contributors
who could not otherwise attend the conference. This will depend on overall

*= About LLVM = *
The LLVM Infrastructure is a collection of libraries and tools that make it
easy to build compilers, optimizers, Just-In-Time code generators, and many
other compiler-related programs.  LLVM uses a single, language-independent
virtual instruction set both as an offline code representation (to
communicate code between compiler phases and to run-time systems) and as
the compiler internal  representation (to analyse and transform programs).
This persistent code representation allows a common set of sophisticated
compiler techniques to be applied at compile-time, link-time, install-time,
run-time, or "idle-time" (between program runs). The strengths of the
LLVM infrastructure
are its extremely simple design (which makes it easy to understand and
use), source-language independence, powerful mid-level optimizer, automated
compiler debugging support, extensibility, and its stability and
reliability.  LLVM is currently being used to host a wide variety of
academic research projects and commercial projects.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Edinburgh!

Tobias von Koch, on behalf of the organisation and program committees.
