I think SIMD and Dispatch have been presented on before at C++ Now right? Could anyone also very quickly summarise the main differences in their C++ 11 only rewrite? I think I remember it was mainly compilation speed rather than doing anything unusually C++ 11 only?
Boost.Dispatch underwent a c++11 rewrite for compile-time issue yes, the main point being to use proper modern type deduction facility and be less constraining on how to provide dispatching point. Mathias Gaunard can probably be more talkative on the details.
I initially wanted to do a presentation on Boost.Dispatch, and how the new versions of C++ significantly simplify what it's doing, but big changes in my personal and professional life have prevented me from considering going to C++Now this year. Maybe some other time though.
