The high-level loop templates in Intel Threading Building Blocks give you efficient, scalable ways to exploit the power of multi-core chips without having to start from scratch. They let you design your software at a concurrent task level and not worry about low-level manipulation of threads. Because they are generic, you can customize them to your specific needs. Although algorithms in this chapter can unlock the power of multi-core processing for many applications, sometimes you will require more complex algorithms. The next chapter takes the models shown in this chapter to a higher level.
