HPX V1.10.0 released -- STE||AR Group

The STE||AR Group has released V1.10.0 of HPX -- A C++ Standard library for Concurrency and Parallelism.

HPX V1.10.0 Released

We have released HPX 1.10.0 — a major update to our C++ Standard Library for Concurrency and Parallelism. We have continued to modernize HPX to fully conform to the latest standardization efforts in the are of parallelism and concurrency. Our HPX documentation has seen a major overhaul for this release, please have a look here. We finished documenting the public local HPX API, we have added migration guides from widely used parallelization platforms to HPX (OpenMP, TBB, and MPI). Among other things, we have performed a lot of code cleanup and refactoring to improve the overall code quality and decrease compile times and to improve the consistency of our exposed APIs. The core implementation has seen many performance optimizations that impact every aspect of our applications.

If you have any questions, comments, or exploits to report you can reach us on IRC or Matrix (#ste||ar on libera.chat) or email us at hpx-users. We depend on your input!

You can download the release from our releases page or check out the v1.10.0 tag using git. A full list of changes can be found in the release notes.

HPX is a general-purpose parallel C++ runtime system for applications of any scale. It implements all of the related facilities as defined by the C++20 Standard. As of this writing, HPX provides the only widely available open-source implementation of the new C++17, C++20, and C++23 parallel algorithms, including a full set of parallel range-based algorithms. Additionally, HPX implements functionalities proposed as part of the ongoing C++ standardization process, such as large parts of the features related parallelism and concurrency as specified by the upcoming C++23 Standard, the C++ Concurrency TS, Parallelism TS V2, data-parallel algorithms, executors, and many more. It also extends the existing C++ Standard APIs to the distributed case (e.g., compute clusters) and for heterogeneous systems (e.g., GPUs).

HPX seamlessly enables a new Asynchronous C++ Standard Programming Model that tends to improve the parallel efficiency of our applications and helps reducing complexities usually associated with parallelism and concurrency.

 

HPX V1.9.1 released -- STE||AR Group

The STE||AR Group has released V1.9.1 of HPX -- A C++ Standard library for Concurrency and Parallelism.

HPX V1.9.1 Released

We have released HPX 1.9.1 that adds a number of small new features and fixes a handful of problems discovered since the last 1.9.0 release. In particular: we fixed various occasional hanging during startup and shutdown in distributed scenarios. We also added support for zero-copy serialization on the receiving side to the TCP, MPI, and LCI parcelports. Moreover, we have added support for Visual Studio 2019 and GCC using MINGW on Windows, and also support for GCC 13 and Clang 15.0.0. Furthermore, we aligned our header names to their standards counterparts so porting from standard C++ to HPX is now easier. Last but not least, and by adhering to popular demand, we started adding migration guides for people interested in moving their codes away from other, commonplace parallelization frameworks like OpenMP and MPI. We have also continued to improve our documentation, please have a look here.

HPX V1.9.0 released -- STE||AR Group

The STE||AR Group has released V1.9.0 of HPX -- A C++ Standard library for Concurrency and Parallelism.

HPX V1.9.0 Released

We have released HPX 1.9.0 — a major update to our C++ Standard Library for Concurrency and Parallelism. The HPX parallel algorithms now have been fully adapted to C++23, all existing facilities have been adjusted to conform to this version of the Standard as well. We now can proudly announce full conformance to the C++23 concurrency and parallelism facilities. HPX supports all of the parallel algorithms as specified by C++23. We have been able to significantly improve the performance of some of our algorithms. On top of that we support parallel versions of all range-based algorithms and have added more support for explicit vectorization to our algorithms (using std::experimental::simd). Even more work has been done towards implementing P2300 (std::execution) and keeping the underlying senders/receivers facilities in line with the evolving standardization efforts. We have done a lot of refactoring to improve the consistency of our exposed APIs. Last but not least, we have continued to improve our documentation, please have a look here.

HPX V1.7.1 released -- STE||AR Group

The STE||AR Group has released V1.7.1 of HPX -- A C++ Standard library for parallelism and concurrency.

HPX V1.7.1 Released

The newest version of HPX (V1.7.1) is now available for download! This release fixes minor problems found after the version 1.7.0. It fixes a bug in the internals of actions, adds a version check to the new Asio dependency, and slightly improves the performance of spinlocks among other minor changes. Importantly, the experimental hpx::execution::simdpar execution policy introduced in 1.7.0 was renamed to hpx::execution::par_simd for consistency with the standard parallel execution policies. While this is a breaking change in a patch release, we felt it was important to make this adaptation as soon as possible. The full list of improvements, fixes, and breaking changes can be found in the release notes.

The STE||AR Group has released V1.7.0 of HPX -- A C++ Standard library for parallelism and concurrency.

HPX V1.7.0 Released

The newest version of HPX (V1.7.0) is now available for download! This release continues the focus on C++20 conformance with multiple new algorithms adapted to be C++20 conformant and becoming customization point objects (CPOs). We’ve also added experimental support for using GCC’s SIMD data types with our parallel algorithms. Finally, we've implemented a large subset of sender/receiver functionality based on current proposals (mainly P0443, P1897, and P2300). HPX futures fulfill the sender concept, and senders can explicitly be turned into futures, which means that codebases can gradually adopt senders where appropriate. The full list of improvements, fixes, and breaking changes can be found in the release notes.
