  • Powering Cognitive Communications Engine for NASA with Boost
    News #Bloom
    Boost libraries were employed to provide permissive‑licensed, reliable networking and serialization for a C++11 reinforcement‑learning cognitive engine that autonomously optimizes ISS radio communications. Boost.Asio was used to handle concurrent UDP/Ethernet I/O, and Boost.Serialization was used to enable state persistence across orbital passes, facilitating successful on‑orbit testing.
