描述

All the libraries in the Concurrency category specialize in programming for parallel computation. When I read "Concurrency" (especially with subtitle "Concurrency and Multithreading"), I would expect Boost.Asio, Boost.Future, CAF (C++ Actor Framework) etc., maybe a link to C++11 threads.

The Committee seems to agree and names their working groups "Concurrency" for standardizing Boost.Future, mutex stuff and Asio's executors, and "Parallelism" for parallel algorithms, SIMD and whatnot.

I suggest to have "Concurrency" renamed to "Parallelism". Not sure what to do about the items that would go into an actual "Concurrency" section, since Boost.Future is most certainly not an Asynchronous Event Loop but as one of the most generically useful and close-to-being-standardized libraries should definitely have a place in this list. On the other hand, libuv isn't so much concerned with concurrency and really more with batching of asynchronous stuff under the hood. So maybe just have two separate categories with some of the same items in both?

研究方向
The issue proposes renaming the 'Concurrency' category to 'Parallelism' to align with C++ committee terminology. A newcomer should review the current list of libraries under 'Concurrency' and decide which ones belong to a new 'Concurrency' category (e.g., Boost.Asio, Boost.Future) versus 'Parallelism' (e.g., parallel algorithms). The maintainer may also need to add or move libraries like Boost.Future into a separate section. Check the existing README for the current structure and propose a clear split.
