DescriptionLLVM, winner of the 2012 ACM Software System Award, has
become an integral part of the software-development
ecosystem for optimizing compilers, dynamic-language
execution engines, source-code analysis and
transformation tools, debuggers and linkers, and a whole
host of programming-language and toolchain-related
components. Now heavily used in both academia and
industry, where it allows for rapid development of
production-quality tools, LLVM is increasingly used in
work targeted at high-performance computing. Research in
and implementation of programming-language analysis,
compilation, execution and profiling has clearly
benefited from the availability of a high-quality,
freely-available infrastructure on which to build. This
fourth annual workshop will focus on recent
developments, from both academia and industry, that
build on LLVM to advance the state of the art in
high-performance computing.
