Functional Reactive Programming in C++

Abstract

Reactive programming is a relatively new discipline that teaches how to design and develop complex systems through the notion of data-flow. The main idea is that the system, and its components, are able to receive signals, and to react to them in some way. The signals can be seen as streams of messages that we can transform using the usual monadic functions (map, bind, filter, etc.) and that we can easily direct through our system.
