L'autore:

Bruno Cardoso Lopes

Bruno Cardoso Lopes received a PhD in Computer Science from University of Campinas, Brazil. He's been an LLVM contributor since 2007 and implemented the MIPS backend from scratch, which he has been maintaining for several years. Among his other contributions, he has written the x86 AVX support and improved the ARM assembler. His research interests include code compression techniques and reduced bit width ISAs. In the past, he has also developed drivers for Linux and FreeBSD operating systems.

Rafael Auler

Rafael Auler is a PhD candidate at University of Campinas, Brazil. He holds a Master's degree in Computer Science and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering from the same university. For his Master's work, he wrote a proof-of-concept tool that automatically generates LLVM backends based on architecture description files. Currently, his PhD research topics include dynamic binary translation, Just-in-Time compilers, and computer architecture. Rafael was also a recipient of the Microsoft Research 2013 Graduate Research Fellowship Award.
