Hi Dorit,

Here is a semi reasonably list of llvm-based publications: 
http://llvm.org/pubs/ which might be useful.

There are many reasons, but one of the biggest is the GCC doesn't (practically 
speaking) support JIT compilation.  While it is possible to implement OpenCL on 
GCC, I suspect that the end result wouldn't be very compelling without some 
major architecture changes.
