[LLVMdev] 2011 LLVM Annual Developers' Meeting (original) (raw)

Kipping, David dkipping at qualcomm.com
Wed Sep 14 18:32:35 PDT 2011

Summary:

Details:

Registration: There are about 100 seats left, after which a wait list will be created on a first come basis.

Dinner: Space is limited for dinner, and there are about 40 seats left

Lightning Talks and Posters: Several requests have been made to have Posters and Lighting Talks. Lighting Talks are ~5 minute topics which could be an advertisement for a poster later in the day, or just to generate food for thought to be discussed during breaks/BoFs/dinner. Submit your proposals for a lighting talk at www.llvm.org/devmtg/talk.php Be sure to include "lighting talk" in the description.

Submit a proposal for a poster at www.llvm.org/devmtg/talk.php. We expect that some poster authors may be from university or the community, and may need travel assistance. If so apply at www.llvm.org/devmtg/sponsor.php. I will try my best to find sponsorship for interesting research or uses related to LLVM family projects.

If there are enough quality proposals for Lighting Talks and/or Posters, we will add sessions for this year's program.

Leading session topics requested by the attendees first to register (of 49 responses): Optimizations (8) Code density, loop nest, roadmap, transformations Vectorization/parallelization (4) JIT (5) Compile time performance Code generation quality LLVM as a tier in a JIT compiler JIT on ARM Clang (4) "All things clang" Extending Clang parsing and types MC (3) Integrated assembler strategies OpenCL (3) Testing/Analysis/Debugging (3) Detecting memory errors and races using LLVM instrumentation llvm as a framework for code analysis and binary translation Linker (2) C++ (2) C++11, Linux libc++ support C++ support in clang - compare with GCC C++ bitcode (2) Bitcode portability/stability across releases GPU (2) GPU code generation SIMD (2) VLIW (2) Linux support (2)

Other topics suggested: Dynamic Languages build on top of Clang and LLVM Concurrency and atomics memory model Targeting a new processor cookbook Keeping PowerPC-Apple-Darwin/OSX target up-to-date LLVM compilation on/for iOS or Android devices. Compiling declarative languages with LLVM

Session Proposals Deadline Extended: This is your meeting, and it is important that you participate. There is clearly many topics that attendees are interested in seeing; take this opportunity to step up and share your experience. Propose a technical session at: www.llvm.org/devmtg/talk.php

Because of the broad session interest, and the potential lighting talks/posters we have extend the session deadline to the end of the month.
