IBM is looking for a student with LLVM expertise for a research
project on optimizations for Cell. They have been in discussions with
Michel to use the Cell back end for LLVM being developed at Aerospace,
though I don't know if a final decision was reached on that (any news,
Michel?). The goal of this work is to add new (LLVM-level and/or back-
end-level) optimizations targeted at Cell.
This search is being started somewhat late for the summer. If you are
interested in this position and qualify, please contact me as soon as
possible.

Re: Follow-up to IBM / UIUC co-op, LLVM
Professor Adve,
Below you will find the job description we discussed. If you would,
please post this Job description with any and all available sources
that provides us the best opportunity to find qualified candidates. I
believe that Mark mentioned that Senior undergraduates and gradulate
school level candidates that meet the requirements are welcome to
apply. As far as an initial contact, if possible, you can screen and
forward resumes to Mark Nutter. If time doesn't allow, please post
Mark (mnutter at us.ibm.com) as the person to forward their resume to.
Thanks again for your help.
Happy Trails,
Chris Frazier
