Attached is a first draft at the pdf. I'm having trouble with chapter 4, my "ticket" sections are being applied to strange texts that I didn't mark, etc. I'll work on it more tomorrow, but the new text is there (just in the wrong color). Here are some issues I came across as I did the pdf. I did NOT change these in the tex/pdf yet, but bring them to your attention first: P16, line 13 change: "width and encode address values" should be "width and encode count values" or "width and encode an number of datatype values" ? MPI_Scatterw definition uses sendtype in the argument list, but sendtypes in the argument list description. The "examples" (really in-line code) uses ';' for argument separators, is that "normal"? The displs description for MIP_Allgatherw uses some parenthesis not used in other displs descriptions. There are various lists of collective routines on page 137 (5.2.2) that should now include the w versions we added? The ticket lists Chapter 4 twice, but the second occurrence is meant to be Collectives. One thing I did change in the tex/pdf: In places where Fab added a _X function call and just added it in the ticket as if it should just be combined with the non-_X version, but the format of the tex/standard does not allow for this, the function needs to have its own separate presentation in order to use the tex macros. A general MPI problem (not specific to this ticket)... we often describe operations with the term: "specifying the number of elements to send to each processor". But processor/rank should not be used interchangeably.

I'd like to have David Solt generate a PDF sometime next week, in time for me to read it at the forum the following week (our time slot for this is 'working lunch' on Tuesday. https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/ticket/265 Thanks for your help, -Fab _______________________________________________ Mpi3-bwcompat mailing list Mpi3-bwcompat_at_[hidden] http://lists.mpi-forum.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/mpi3-bwcompat *
