Overload (magazine)
''Overload'' is a bi-monthly professional computer magazine published by ACCU, that was established in 1993 and is edited by Frances Buontempo. It aims to "publish a high standard of articles about all aspects of software development". All issues of ''Overload'', starting from August 1998, are available online. History ''Overload'' was started in 1993 as a magazine of the "Turbo C++ SIG". By 1994, it had become a "journal of C++ SIG", with an appropriate change in scope. At that time there were several magazines with similar scope, including ''C/C++ Users Journal, C++ Report'', and to a lesser extent, ''Dr. Dobb's Journal''. The scope of ''Overload'' continued to be broadened and in 2000 the magazine was relabeled from "journal of C++ SIG" to "journal of ACCU". About the same time, a board of "readers" was established, to assist authors with improving their articles. Over time, many competing publications have been discontinued (''C++ Report'' has been discontinued in 2002, ''C/C+ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Abrahams became a member of the C++ Standards Committee in 1996 and served until 2012. During the standardization process that resulted in the first ANSI standard C++ – in 1998 – Abrahams was a principal driving force behind detailing the exception safety of the C++ Standard Library. Many of the functions and methods of the standard are specified with one of three guarantees. Together these have become known as the Abrahams guarantees.
