+<h3>Renderscript</h3>
+
+<div>
+
+<p><a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/renderscript/index.html">Renderscript</a>
+ is Android's advanced 3D graphics rendering and compute API. It provides a
+ portable C99-based language with extensions to facilitate common use cases
+ for enhancing graphics and thread level parallelism. The Renderscript
+ compiler frontend is based on Clang/LLVM. It emits a portable bitcode format
+ for the actual compiled script code, as well as reflects a Java interface for
+ developers to control the execution of the compiled bitcode. Executable
+ machine code is then generated from this bitcode by an LLVM backend on the
+ device. Renderscript is thus able to provide a mechanism by which Android
+ developers can improve performance of their applications while retaining
+ portability.</p>
