+
+## Fluid Python API
+
+- PaddlePaddle发布版本v0.11.0包含一个新的特性*PaddlePaddle Fluid*. Fluid 是设计用来让用户像Pytorch和Tensorflow Eager Execution一样执行程序。在这些系统中，不再有*模型*这个概念，应用也不再包含一个用于描述Operator图或者一系列层的符号描述，而是像通用程序那样描述训练或者预测的过程。而Fluid与PyTorch或Eager Execution的区别在于Fluid不依赖Python提供的控制流，例如 if-else-then或者for，而是提供了基于C++实现的控制流并暴露了对应的用with语法实现的Python接口。例如：
+
+  https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/blob/3df78ed2a98d37f7ae6725894cc7514effd5664b/python/paddle/v2/fluid/tests/test_while_op.py#L36-L44
+
+- 在v0.11.0版本中，我们提供了一个C++类`Executor`用于运行一个Fluid程序。Executor类似一个解释器。在未来的版本中，我们将提升和优化Executor成为一个调试器，就像GDB。并可能提供一些编译器，这个编译器会读取一个上文所描述的应用然后编译成一个等价的
+源代码，这个源代码可以被nvcc编译成可以使用CUDA的二进制，或者被icc编译成可以充分利用Intel CPU的二进制。
+
+
+## 新特点
+
+* 发布 `Fluid` API。
+* 增加了用于模型预测的C-API。
+* 用Fluid API实现了一个简单的GAN的例子。
+* 增加了关于性能调优的文档。
+* 为`paddle.v2.dataset`下载数据集提供了重试机制.
+* C++中使用protobuf-lite替换protobuf减少了二进制的大小。
+* 发布了新特性 [Elastic Deep Learning (EDL)](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/cloud/tree/develop/doc/autoscale/experiment).
+* 基于Bazel API利用cmake实现了一个的新的构建系统函数库。
+* 当使用编译选项`WITH_MKL=ON`时自动下载和编译Intel® [MKLML](https://github.com/01org/mkl-dnn/releases/download/v0.11/mklml_lnx_2018.0.1.20171007.tgz) 函数库.

+  - 完成了 11个 MKL-DNN 层: Convolution, Fully connectivity, Pooling, ReLU, Tanh, ELU, Softmax, BatchNorm, AddTo, Concat, LRN。
+  - 完成了 3个 MKL-DNN 网络: VGG-19, ResNet-50, GoogleNet
+  - 基于Intel Skylake 6148 CPU的[性能测试](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/blob/develop/benchmark/IntelOptimizedPaddle.md) : 相对于MKLML有2~3倍的训练加速。
+* 增加 [softsign activation](http://www.paddlepaddle.org/docs/develop/documentation/zh/api/v2/config/activation.html#softsign)

+* 增加 [sequence slice layer](http://www.paddlepaddle.org/docs/develop/documentation/zh/api/v2/config/layer.html#seq-slice)
+* 增加 [row convolution layer](http://www.paddlepaddle.org/docs/develop/documentation/zh/api/v2/config/layer.html#row-conv)
+* 增加移动端友好的网页
+
+## 改进
+
+* 使用一个Python`whl`包即可安装.
+* [V2 API可以实现用户定制化评估](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/models/tree/develop/ltr#训练过程中输出自定义评估指标)。
+* 将 `PADDLE_ONLY_CPU` 改为 `PADDLE_WITH_GPU`, 因为我们会支持多种设备。
+* 删除了有一些bug的BarrierStat。
+* 清理和删除了paddle::Parameter中未使用的函数。
+* 删除了ProtoDataProvider。
+* Huber loss同时支持回归和分类。

+# Release v0.11.0
+
+## Fluid Python API
+
+- Release 0.11.0 includes a new feature *PaddlePaddle Fluid*.  Fluid is
+  designed to allow users to program like PyTorch and TensorFlow Eager Execution.
+  In these systems, there is no longer the concept *model* and applications
+  do not include a symbolic description of a graph of operators nor a sequence
+  of layers. Instead, applications look exactly like a usual program that
+  describes a process of training or inference.  The difference between
+  Fluid and PyTorch or Eager Execution is that Fluid doesn't rely on Python's
+  control-flow, `if-then-else` nor `for`.  Instead, Fluid provides its
+  C++ implementations and their Python binding using the `with` statement.  For an example
+
+  https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/blob/3df78ed2a98d37f7ae6725894cc7514effd5664b/python/paddle/v2/fluid/tests/test_while_op.py#L36-L44
+
+- In 0.11.0, we provides a C++ class `Executor` to run a Fluid program.
+Executor works like an interpreter. In future version, we will improve
+`Executor` into a debugger like GDB, and we might provide some compilers,
+which, for example, takes an application like the above one, and outputs
+an equivalent C++ source program, which can be compiled using
+[`nvcc`](http://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-compiler-driver-nvcc/index.html)
+to generate binaries that use CUDA, or using
+[`icc`](https://software.intel.com/en-us/c-compilers) to generate binaries
+that make full use of Intel CPUs.
