Answer 1

The topic is called "thread affinity", you could find the response by searching for this plus your exact operating system version.

Boost is meant to be a cross platform library while the question you linked to points toward a OS specific implementation which to my knowledge is the only way to do what you are asking.

In Windows OS you can use SetThreadAffinityMask API call for this. I don't see how boost fits in what you need.
