Algorithms are just-in-time +compiled using LLVM's MCJIT infrastructure to execute on single or +multi-threaded CPUs and potentially OpenCL SPIR or CUDA enabled GPUs. +Likely seeks to explore new optimizations for statistical learning +algorithms by moving them from an offline model generation step to the +compile-time evaluation of a function (the learning algorithm) with constant +arguments (the training data). + +LDC - the LLVM-based D compiler +------------------------------- + +`D <http://dlang.org>`_ is a language with C-like syntax and static typing. It +pragmatically combines efficiency, control, and modeling power, with safety and +programmer productivity. D supports powerful concepts like Compile-Time Function +Execution (CTFE) and Template Meta-Programming, provides an innovative approach +to concurrency and offers many classical paradigms. + +`LDC <http://wiki.dlang.org/LDC>`_ uses the frontend from the reference compiler +combined with LLVM as backend to produce efficient native code. LDC targets +x86/x86_64 systems like Linux, OS X, FreeBSD and Windows and also Linux on +PowerPC (32/64 bit). Ports to other architectures like ARM, AArch64 and MIPS64 +are underway. + Additional Information ====================== |
