Current multicore systems are nondeterministic. Each time they execute a multithreaded application, even if supplied with the same input, they can produce a different output. This frustrates debugging, limits the ability to properly test multithreaded code and hinders fault-tolerant scenarios. Moreover, data-races often lead to surprising behavior and complicate …
C++ Concepts got a lot of bad press and were dropped from C++0x. They were considered too complex with too few benefits. And yet their equivalent in Haskell, type classes, are considered simple and powerful. I will talk about both languages, explaining some Haskell and C++ concept syntax …
