LambdaJIT

Abstract

C++11 introduced a set of new features to extend the core language and the standard library. Amongst the new features are basic blocks for concurrency management like threads and atomic operation support, and a new syntax to declare single purpose, one off functions, called lambda functions, which integrate nicely to the Standard Template Library (STL). The STL provides a set of high level algorithms operating on data ranges, often applying a user defined function, which can now be expressed as a lambda function. Together, an STL algorithm and a lambda function provides a concise and efficient way to express a data traversal pattern and localized computation.
