RaftLib
RaftLib[1] is a portable parallel processing system that aims to provide extreme performance while increasing programmer productivity. It enables a programmer to assemble a massively parallel program (both local and distributed) using simple iostream-like operators. RaftLib handles threading, memory allocation, memory placement, and auto-parallelization of compute kernels.[2] It enables applications to be constructed from chains of compute kernels forming a task and pipeline parallel compute graph. Programs are authored in C++ (although other language bindings are planned).

Example
Here is a Hello World example for demonstration purposes:[3]
#include <raft>
#include <raftio>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string>
class hi : public raft::kernel
{
public:
hi() : raft::kernel()
{
output.addPort< std::string >( "0" );
}
virtual raft::kstatus run()
{
output[ "0" ].push( std::string( "Hello World\n" ) );
return( raft::stop );
}
};
int
main( int argc, char **argv )
{
/** instantiate print kernel **/
raft::print< std::string > p;
/** instantiate hello world kernel **/
hi hello;
/** make a map object **/
raft::map m;
/** add kernels to map, both hello and p are executed concurrently **/
m += hello >> p;
/** execute the map **/
m.exe();
return( EXIT_SUCCESS );
}

gollark: Ħmm, I have now configured™ my certs to autorenew again, I think.
gollark: There's not THAT much of an intelligence disparity between any humans, by any reasonable metric.
gollark: That seems unlikely.
