[llvm-dev] Reminder: LLVM-HPC2 Workshop at SC'15 - Call for papers

Hello everyone,

A quick reminder: The deadline for submitting papers for this year's LLVM in
HPC Workshop at SC is only three weeks away, September 1st. We had excellent
attendance last year, and this is a great peer-reviewed forum for presenting and
publishing your LLVM-related work.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Also, I know that most people wait until the last minute to submit papers, so if
you're working on a paper to submit, I would appreciate a quick note. It
will help me sleep better at night ;)

Thanks again,
Hal

>   * Embedding compilation and dynamic execution at scale
>   * Tools for optimization, profiling, and feedback
>   * Source code transformation and analysis
