== Overview ==
Is a template library developed by Intel to provide methods to facilitate parallel programming. This is done by dividing a computation into tasks that can be scheduled to run in parallel threads on multi-core processors <br />
Threading Building Blocks includes algorithms, concurrent containers, locks and memory allocation tools. <br />
TBB is designed to work with any C++ compiler. <br />
The Standard Template Library also extends useful functionality, including generic data structures, containers, iterators and algorithms that can be used to write clean efficient code. <br />
The person who in 1979 was initially interested with ideas of generic programming, his work at AT&T and Bell Laboratories eventually lead to a proposal to the ANSI/ISO for the standardization of STL into the C++ standard.
