the presenters blog.
The Evolving Search for Effective C++
by Scott Meyers
Description from the blog:
The video of my keynote address at Meeting C++ 2014 on December 5 has just been posted to the Meeting C++ Channel at YouTube. I was given a long time slot (two hours), so I addressed two rather different topics, both based on my work of the past quarter century identifying and promulgating guidelines for effective C++ programming...
C++ Template Metaprogramming Introduction -- Nicolás Brailovsky
In case you missed it, from Nicolás Brailovsky's blog -- an interesting post after you get past a little ranting:
C++ Template Metaprogramming Introduction
by Nicolás Brailovsky
From the article:
First, we need to start with a little clarification: using
template <class T>to parametrize a class, something likestd::vectordoes, is not template metaprogramming. That’s just a generic class (Java-pun intended). That is indeed a useful case for templates, but it has little fun in it.Template metaprogramming is much more fun than mere generic classes...
A few notes:
- Even if template metaprogramming isn't something that every C++ developer will do on daily basis, it's worth being able to understand when you see it.
- For homework, try solving the Hanoi Tower problem by using template metaprogramming. [A sample for the 8-Queens problem is available here.]

OpenMP* Support in Clang/LLVM: Status Update and Future Directions --Alexey Bataev & Zinovy Nis
A status update for the work done on OpenMP for Clang/LLVM and future directions presented at the 2014 LLVM Developers' Meeting. The slides are also available here.
OpenMP* Support in Clang/LLVM: Status Update and Future Directions
OpenMP is a well-known and widely used API for shared-memory parallelism. Support for OpenMP in Clang/LLVM compiler is currently under development. In this talk, we will present current status of OpenMP support, what is done and what remains to be done, technical details behind OpenMP implementation. Also, we will elaborate on accelerators and pragma-assisted SIMD vectorization, introduced in the latest 4.0 edition of the OpenMP standard.

GoingNative 32: Sneak Preview of C++17
By Gabriel Ha
From the article:
Join us with ISO Committee member (and Microsoft as well, of course =P) Gabriel Dos Reis, who graciously took the time to give us the inside scoop of some things that made it into C++17, as well as things that got taken out. All this is fresh off the press of the most recent C++ Standards Meeting...
