What does this notation mean ? Boost.Serialization ?

I found the Dataflow Iterators section in the documentation pages for 
Serialization library, but now I do now know what headers do I need to 
include for it. I would like to avoid the automatic linking of the 
library and only use the headers, as I am still to write a step in my 
project build process that would compile boost before compiling my 
source files.

I find it that the Dataflow Iterators page in the library is missing 
examples to also mention the include files needed, and that finding a 
simple function like base64 in the online documentation is a real 
challenge. Could the serialization page also include an index ?

Thank you,
