Martin, have you had a look at https://github.com/taskflow/taskflow ?
- The Way We Are Building Event-Driven Applications Is Misguided
> The set-theory approach is hard to do, but promising. Each object that wants something has a small set of the things it wants. There's a big pool of such sets. There's also a big pool of the items you have, which changes constantly. It's easy to express what you need to fetch and which objects are now ready to go as set intersection and difference operations. But you need representations for big sparse sets which can do set operations fast. Probably B-trees, or something in that space.
Incremental updates to dynamic dependency graphs is a familiar problem for build tooling. I personally have used the taskflow C++ library (https://github.com/taskflow/taskflow) to great effect.
> Microsoft Research fooled around with this concept years ago in a different context. The idea was to have a database which supported pending SQL queries. The query would return new results when the database changed such that the results of the query changed. The goal was to to support that for millions of pending queries. Financial traders would love to have that. It's a very hard scaling problem. Don't know how that came out.
Incremental view maintenance is an active area of research. The likes of Noria and Materialize have done this with SQL, and the pg_ivm Postgres extension looks promising. Not sure if there is an equivalent implementation geared towards entity-component systems, though.
- Improvements of Clojure in his time
For parallel programming nowadays, personally I reach for C++ Taskflow when I really care about performance, or a mix of core.async and running multiple load balanced instances when Iām doing more traditional web backend stuff in Clojure.

- How to go from intermediate to advance in C++?
Also, you can take a look to good libraries. The problem is that very often libraries are heavily templated, so It could be hard. For example, I like the style of the Taskflow library, I think is very clear, is relatively small, while makes use of more advanced techniques: https://github.com/taskflow/taskflow
- gcl v1.1 released - Graph Concurrent Library for C++
Cool. Thanks! How does it compare to taskflow?

I've not seen yet, but it's been a bit since I looked last, any evidence of being able to build a computation graph and "save" it to re-run on new inputs. Something like https://github.com/taskflow/taskflow
- Proper abstraction for this?
It seems you're describing something a generic parallel task framework. Check taskflow for a production ready example https://github.com/taskflow/taskflow/blob/master/
- That one technology, question, or skill you never learned, and now you are haunted by during every new job conversation...
- https://github.com/taskflow/taskflow (I recommend to learn it first since its API and documentation are excellent)
- Parallel Computations in C++: Where Do I Begin?
If you want some sort of "job" system, where you submit items to a some sort of queue to be processed in parallel, try searching for a thread pool - there isn't one in the standard library, but there's about a million implementations online. There are more complicated versions of that idea, that describe computation as a directed acyclic graph, such as taskflow.
