Explore advanced C++ concurrency techniques in this conference talk from C++Now 2017. Delve into the concept of "No raw std::thread" as an extension of the "No raw loops" philosophy, applying algorithms to values distributed in time and space. Follow along as Kirk Shoop demonstrates a live tweet analysis application, showcasing complex interactions between a real-time tweet stream, REST API calls, and the main rendering loop. Learn how to express these interactions using concurrent algorithms instead of raw std::thread and std::mutex. Discover how to process batched values with the range-v3 algorithms library, distribute values across threads, and coordinate values through time. Gain insights into implementing features such as tweet parsing, sentiment analysis via machine learning API calls, search functionality, and word cloud generation. Enhance your understanding of modern C++ concurrency practices and their application in real-world scenarios.
