I'm not sure Boost is the right place for this sort of enterprise; Boost
has a strong heritage for low-level C++ utilities, but not much in the way
of mathematics.

Have you used the Sundials project?
https://computation.llnl.gov/casc/sundials/main.html

There are many specialized needs for different classes of simulation, and
I'm not sure they will go away with just a little OO/template magic.

Later,
Daniel
