About Cilk++

Cilk++ was an extension of C++ developed to simplify parallel programming by introducing language constructs for task parallelism. It originated from the Cilk project at MIT in the mid-1990s and was further commercialized by Cilk Arts, a company founded in 2006. The primary goal was to enable developers to write efficient multithreaded applications with minimal effort.

Strengths of Cilk++ included its ease of use for parallel programming, efficient workload distribution, and integration with C++. Weaknesses involved limited portability and reliance on specific compilers. Competitors included OpenMP, Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB), and Microsoft Parallel Patterns Library (PPL).
