-===== Changelog summary =====
+===== News log =====
-  * 22/04/11 - **v.1.1.0**: Now working on Linux (gcc/makefile), Mac OS X (gcc/makefile, gcc/Xcode), Windows XP and 7, 32/64 bit (visual Studio 2008 and 2010). MSqueue reworked and now in stable state. Slightly modified MPMC interface and usage. Added Quicksort algo implementation which uses MPMC queue (both in blocking and non-blocking version). Fixes return type error in node.hpp ubuffer.hpp and buffer.hpp. Added the method get_channel_id() in the emitter and collector class the method returns the id of the worker thread from which an input task is coming from. Added the fibonacci and the quicksort examples. Added basic interface for pinning threads to CPUs. Added multipush and mpush to SWSR buffer (experimental code). Added mpush to uSWSR queue (experimental code). More tests. Improved cmake test. Improved performance for fine grain D&C computation (farm+feedback) by changing the losetime_in method in the lb class. Added Multi-Producers/Multi-Consumers queue (MSqueue by Michael and Scott). Added abstraction_dcas from liblfds (www.liblfds.org). Fixed some bugs in the allocator. Posix_memalign implemented in the allocator. Ticket-spinlock from Linux kernel (EXPERIMENTAL code only for Linux). Added two lock-based methods in uSWSR queue (mp_push and mc_pop). Fixed deadlock situation when pipeline with feedback channel is created (torus pattern). Implemented a Deferred Reclamation strategy based on number of free in the allocator. Added the ff_queue implementation of a SPSC queue by Dmitry Vyukov (www.1024cores.net).
-  * 01/09/10 - **v.1.0.0**: Unbounded SWSR queue improved. Added list-based dynamic queue.Changed directory structure. cmake compilation support. Fixed some bugs (ffStats, one memory leak). Multiple streams management. Removed compilation warnings (strict aliasing warnings). Improved accelerator.
-  * 22/03/10 - **v.1.0.0rc2**: Moved to LGPLv3 license. More tests and applications (including pbzip2). Allocator improved. Fixed some bugs. Added the broadcast_task method.
-  * 03/02/10 - **v.1.0.0rc1** tarball available: Minor API revision. Improved FastFlow accelerator support. More tests and applications, including how to accelerate sequential applications (new examples: Nokia QT Mandelbrot and NQueens). Execution trace support. Allocator improved. More tests and applications.
-  * 16/11/09 - **v.0.9.7**: Major API revision: patterns are no longer object factories but objects. Support for arbitrary nesting of ''pipe'', ''farm'', and ''loop'' at high-level layer.  Enough also to implement recursive Divide&Conquer (no examples yet).
-  * 19/10/09 - **v.0.6.1**: FastFlow-swps3 Smith-Waterman application added.
-  * 15/10/09 - **v.0.5.0**: First release. Support for ''farm'' skeleton/pattern.
-See also detailed changelog in the the FastFlow tarball.

+A detailed history can be found in Changelog.txt (SVN sourceforge)
-  * 01/09/10 - New major release 1.0.0 (download it [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/mc-fastflow/|here]]).
-  * 27/06/10 - FastFlow stable release 1.0 is going to be released. It incorporates many new features and performance improvements. With the new version we succeeded to squeeze some speedup for very fine-grained tasks (down to 9 nanoseconds on a dual-quad-core @2.2GHz, well don't expect optimal speedup at this grain, but bear in mind the suggested size for TBB is around 5-10 microseconds ;-) ).
+<code>
-  * 21/05/10 - TR-10-11: Porting Decision Tree Algorithms to Multicore using FastFlow is now available (accepted at ECML PKDD 2010, 16% acceptance rate).
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
-  * 29/03/10 - StochKit-FF parallel version is now running (alpha quality, some already planned performance optimization are not yet implemented). It is not yet in the public SVN, but it can be distributed on demand for testing. Just write us if you would like to try it.
+r182 | massimot | 2014-08-13 23:53:35 +0200 (Wed, 13 Aug 2014) | 3 lines
-  * 22/03/10 - FastFlow 1.0.0 RC2 tarball is now available for [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/mc-fastflow/|download]] on sourceforge.
-  * 07/03/10 - Fortcoming: StochKit-FF: A FastFlow-enabled (parallel version for multicore) of [[http://engineering.ucsb.edu/~cse/StochKit/index.html|StochKit]] the popular stochastic simulation framework developed at UC Santa Barbara. The FastFlow-enabled version will exploit the novel "selective memory" technique.
+added the pool evolution pattern into the high-level pattern set (doxygen)
-  * 25/02/10 - A new FastFlow-related technique (a.k.a. self-offloading) is available in TR-10-03 [[http://compass2.di.unipi.it/TR/Files/TR-10-03.pdf.gz|[ADK10],]] where we present a further evolution of FastFlow enabling programmers to offload part of their workload on a dynamically created software accelerator running on unused CPUs. The offloaded function can be easily derived from pre-existing sequential code. We emphasize in particular the effective trade-off between human productivity and execution efficiency of the approach.
-  * 17/02/10 - Take a look [[http://www.puppetmastertrading.com/blog/2010/02/16/lock-free/|here]] at the very interesting Tito Ingargiola's blog post on lock-free programming and about the use of FastFlow framework.
-  * 05/02/10 - Major site updates: architecture and tutorial pages updated. New applications-and-performances page.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
-  * 03/02/10 - FastFlow 1.0.0 RC1 tarball is now available on on sourceforge ([[http://sourceforge.net/projects/mc-fastflow/|download]])
+r181 | massimot | 2014-08-13 23:31:25 +0200 (Wed, 13 Aug 2014) | 3 lines
-  * 08/01/10 - Fortcoming: fastflow accelerator, a brand new way for the semi-automatic (yet efficient) parallelisation of existing sequential C/C++ applications. Available soon.
-  * 30/12/09 - FastFlow site has a new [[ffnamespace:architecture#faq|FAQ]] section. Check it out. Please send us any question via email or sourceforce forum.
+makefile fix
-  * 16/12/09 - We are going to release a new version improving performance of applications in dual-core processors using adaptive implementation templates. No performance reduction for 4/8/16-cores (already available from sourceforge project SVN). New examples under testing: Fast N-queens applications and QT+fastflow Mandelbrot. Working on allocator (preliminary tests: faster than Hoard and TBB).
-  * 10/11/09 - FastFlow paper to appear at PDP 2010 has been published on this page (draft, comparison against TBB, OpenMP, Cilk).
-  * 10/11/09 - FastFlow paper appeared at ParCo 2009 has been published on this page (comparison against POSIX thread).

+Version 2.0.3 released, see Changelog.txt for the changes. In the following
+some major enhancements:
+   - a new lock-free task scheduling for the ParallelFor has been implemented.
+   - defined ParallelFor and ParallelForReduce classes
+   - removed initial underscore in the preprocessor conditional guards in
+     order to be compliant to the C++ standard
+   - added the possibility to freeze and thaw all farm threads and then
+     restart a lower number of workers in a farm having a collector thread.
+     (see tests/test_stopstartall.cpp)
+   - fixed possible node termination problem (in case the freezing flag was set)
+   - ff_send_out_to modified in order to better work with ondemand scheduling
+     policy
+   - changed some int types with size_t, moved to svector whenever possible
+   - more possible combinations of farm, pipeline and feedback using
+     ff_minode and ff_monode
+   - better multi-input and multi-output support (ff_minode ff_monode)
