llvm dev - Aug 2016 - [GSoC] Final project report on CFL-AA

Dear LLVM devs,

My GSoC project this year is about alias analysis, and I wrote a short 
article describing what I've done during the summer: 
https://github.com/grievejia/GSoC2016/raw/master/writeup.pdf

In the report you can find an overview of what the current status of 
CFL-AA. There are also some numbers in the end, but please take those 
numbers with a grain of salt as they were rather preliminary. Like I 
mentioned in the article, there are still *lots of* things left to do 
before we could get a reasonable improvement.

-- 
Best Regards,

FYI, not sure what's wrong with the PDF, but my browser and PDF viewer 
both think the file is not a PDF.  Any chance you could post an 
alternate format?

Philip
