FastFlow is a pattern-based programming framework targeting streaming applications. It implements pipeline, farm, divide and conquer, and their composition, as well as generic streaming networks. It is specifically designed to support the development and the seamless porting of existing applications on multi-core. The layered template-based C++ design ensures flexibility and extendibility. Its lock-free/fence-free run-time support minimizes cache invalidation traffic and enforces the development of high-performance (high-throughput, low-latency) scalable applications. It has been proven faster than TBB, OpenMP, and Cilk on several micro-benchmarcks and real-world applications, especially when dealing with fine-grained parallelism and high-throughput applications.
Charm++ is a portable adaptive runtime system for parallel applications. Application developers create an object-based decomposition of the problem of interest, and the runtime system manages issues of communication, mapping, load balancing, fault tolerance, and more. Sequential code implementing the methods of these parallel objects is written in C++. Calls to libraries in C++, C, and Fortran are common and straightforward. Charm++ is portable across individual workstations, clusters, accelerators (Cell SPEs and GPUs), and supercomputers such as those sold by IBM (Blue Gene, POWER) and Cray (XT3/4/5/6). Applications based on Charm++ are used on at least 5 of the 20 most powerful computers in the world.
libjmmcg is a basic, low-level library with pretensions to implementing features above and beyond (but not necessarily better than!) those implemented within the Standard C++ Library and the Boost Library. It features a library for multi-core or multi-chip SMP parallelism, a suite of hashing algorithms, functions for raising numbers to integer powers, a generic factory wrapper and a generic, multi-threaded, read-only cache (which uses PPD), arguably the world's worst sorting technique, trace output, exceptions that have the file, line, revision, function, and argument details, string utilities, logging, simple command line processing, and much more.
