Sure, here it is.

Automatic Differentiation is the process of translating one program
that computes a function $f$ and generating a different program that
computes the derivative of that function, $f'$.  Activity analysis is
important for AD.  Our results show that a dynamic activity analysis,
checking at run-time, incurs an average overhead of 27\% when all
independent variable are active.  When as few as half of the
independent variables are active, dynamic activity analysis enables an
average speedup of 28\%.  We investigate static activity analysis
combined with dynamic activity analysis as a technique for
reducing the overhead of dynamic activity analysis.

Jean's familiar with this project, so he can be a good arbiter of who 
would be appropriate referees.
