Boost got a new MPI approved in its vast list of libraries -
Boost MPI.

Boost MPI is the way to go if we are planning to use it for high frequency applications.

C++ STL list with logarithmic lookup ??

If we talk about standard C++ SQL (C++03, at least) looking for a data structure to simulate a list with logarithmic lookup, the question will appear to be contradictory to begin with.

If we are looking for a data structure whose access pattern is different from that of the underlying storage mechanism - Boost MultiIndex is an option worth spending at.

Boost ASIO library for high performance networking servers

If anybody is venturing into developing networking libraries in C++ , the ACE framework is the one that strikes your mind first.

Recently came across the library called boost asio - available here .

Boost ASIO definitely makes things much easy and portable. If the application we are developing needs to be truly portable - the fact that asio is part of the boost framework guarantees portability by definition ( across a large number of compilers across many platforms).

There is also an interesting article on the design patterns to be used by the boost library available here.

That makes interesting reading for sure.
