<h3>Portable OpenCL (pocl)</h3>
<div>
<p>In addition to producing an easily portable open source OpenCL
implementation, another major goal pocl is improving performance portability
of OpenCL programs with compiler optimizations, reducing the need for
target-dependent manual optimizations. An important part of pocl is a set of
LLVM passes used to statically parallelize multiple work-items with the
kernel compiler, even in the presence of work-group barriers. This enables
static parallelization of the fine-grained static concurrency in the work
groups in multiple ways (SIMD, VLIW, superscalar,...).</p>

<h3>TTA-based Co-design Environment (TCE)</h3>
<div>
<p>TCE is a toolset for designing application-specific processors (ASP) based on
the Transport triggered architecture (TTA). The toolset provides a complete
co-design flow from C/C++ programs down to synthesizable VHDL/Verilog and
parallel program binaries. Processor customization points include the
register files, function units, supported operations, and the interconnection
network.</p>
<p>TCE uses Clang and LLVM for C/C++ language support, target independent
optimizations and also for parts of code generation. It generates new
LLVM-based code generators "on the fly" for the designed TTA processors and
loads them in to the compiler backend as runtime libraries to avoid
per-target recompilation of larger parts of the compiler chain.</p>
