About this award
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded a $6.797 million definitive contract to Aarno Labs LLC for the Machine Learning and Optimization-Guided Compilers for Heterogeneous Architectures (MOCHA) program on September 5, 2025, with a ceiling of $6,797,875 under cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing.
The originating solicitation, posted August 3, 2024 with proposals due October 10, 2024, sought development of compiler technology that leverages machine learning and advanced optimization techniques to adapt compilers to heterogeneous computing systems with minimal human effort. The effort spans 36 months and addresses technical challenges across compiler front-ends, middle-ends, and back-ends, with evaluation criteria focused on reducing human adaptation effort and improving compiled-code performance. Place of performance is Cambridge, MA. The contract runs through September 5, 2028. DARPA anticipated multiple awards across the MOCHA program opportunity but did not publish a total budget ceiling or estimated individual award values in the pre-solicitation.
