Recommendation Letter for Han-ku Lee from Dr. Guansong Zhang
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Professor,

It is a great pleasure to write this reference letter on behalf of Hanku 
Lee. I am a staff software engineer in compiler group of IBM Toronto lab. I 
knew Hanku when I worked as a research scientist in NPAC at Syracuse 
University.

Hanku Lee worked as a post graduate student in our HPJava project for about 
a year. During that time, he showed strong interests in compiler techniques. 
With his effort, we built a front end for HPJava, a super set of the Java 
language, in pure Java code. The front end became the fundamental tool to 
develop our parallel programming language translator, it also in depth 
covered different design patterns in object oriented programming. Hanku not 
only had a profound understanding of the concept, but also implemented most 
of the code through his hard work.

Based upon what I know about him, I strongly believe that he has an 
excellent research topic and will make successful progresses in his Ph.D. 
study. Your favorable consideration of his application will be highly 
appreciated. Feel free if you need any further information. I can be reached 
at the following,
