+Relooper
+========
+
+This is an optimized C++ implemention of the Relooper algorithm originally
+developed as part of Emscripten. This implementation includes optimizations
+added since the original academic paper [1] - see paper.pdf - was published
+about it, and is written in an LLVM-friendly way with the goal of inclusion
+in upstream LLVM.
