The Numerical Template Toolbox for High Performance Computing

Explore a comprehensive conference talk from BoostCon 2010 on the Numerical Template Toolbox (NT2) for high-performance computing. Delve into the world of array-based scientific computing and learn how NT2 addresses the challenges of performing large-scale, intensive computations on array-like data structures. Discover how this template meta-programming library aims to provide optimal performance while considering architectural concerns such as memory handling and automatic parallelism. Gain insights into NT2's intuitive yet extensible user API and developer SDK. Examine the benefits of utilizing various Boost Components, including MPL, Proto, Fusion, PP, and Serialization, in the library's design and performance optimization. Understand how NT2 compares to other C++-based solutions like BLAS/LAPACK bindings, Blitz++, and Eigen2, and how it aims to meet the diverse needs of different user types in scientific computing, video game development, and other fields.
