Using Modern C++ to Revive an Old Design

Explore a conference talk that revives the Unix System V STREAMS framework using modern C++ techniques. Discover how to implement the OSI stack with small, testable, modular, protocol-independent, reusable, and loosely coupled components. Learn about metaprogramming techniques that achieve optimal runtime performance while maintaining design flexibility. Gain insights into building efficient data processing software systems by leveraging C++ features to address performance challenges associated with the traditional STREAMS design. Benefit from the speaker's extensive experience in C++ programming, spanning various domains including Unix kernel development, telecommunications, and automated trading.
