:* '''If yes, what task did you choose? Please describe what part of it you especially want to focus on if you can already provide this information.'''

::I choose “Improveing JIT compiling” project, focusing on “Enhance JITC functionality” and “Migrate from LLVM JIT to LLVM MCJIT”. Current JITC lacks some feature. In addition disablility of built-in function linking, JITC cannot work with matrices data type but only scalar type. I want to concentrate on expanding JITC to handle this non-trivial but fundamental case.  

::Second, I would begin to migrate from LLVM JIT to LLVM MCJIT. JITC use JIT now, however LLVM community has no longer maintain JIT and move on MCJIT. I think we could move on MCJIT (and still support JIT). This is really important if we want to get the benefit from LLVM subsequently.

::When all essential case has been added, I would try to implement some JIT related optimization into JITC (like trace/method-based JIT).

*'''Please provide a rough estimated timeline for your work on the task. This should include the GSoC midterms and personal commitments like exams or vacation ("non-coding time"). Optionally include two or three milestones you expect.'''
