+Boost.Units
+===========
+
+Boost.Units, part of collection of the [Boost C++ Libraries](http://github.com/boostorg),
+implements dimensional analysis in a general and extensible manner,
+treating it as a generic compile-time metaprogramming problem.
+With appropriate compiler optimization, no runtime execution cost is introduced,
+facilitating the use of this library to provide dimension checking in performance-critical code.
