 The modularized design of odeint allows it to be used in a wide variety of environments by implementing appropriate computational backends.
 For example, there already exist such backends for running odeint on graphic cards, both for OpenCL and CUDA.
-However, in this project we would like to see the applicability further expanded in terms of parallelized computation backends based on OpenMP and MPI.
+However, in this project we would like to see the applicability further expanded in terms of parallelized computation backends based on OpenMP, MPI and maybe also SIMD.
 Some prototypical OpenMP backends have already been developed and used, but have not yet reached a satisfactory level to be integrated with the rest of odeint.
 This project would mainly consist of implementing computational backends for odeint, benchmarking them in performance tests and providing examples on how to use these backends efficiently, maybe in terms of a short tutorial.
 For this work, despite profound knowledge on C++, it would also be helpful to have some experience with numerical programming and parallelization.
