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" ?

We resolved this on the call today.

MPI_Scatterw definition uses sendtype in the argument list, but sendtypes in the argument list description.

Should all be "sendtypes".

The "examples" (really in-line code) uses ';' for argument separators, is that "normal"?

Can you give a page/line of what you're referring to?

The displs description for MIP_Allgatherw uses some parenthesis not used in other displs descriptions.

Can you give a page/line of what you're referring to?

There are various lists of collective routines on page 137 (5.2.2) that should now include the w versions we added?

Agreed -- all I see in there is MPI_IALLTOALLW.

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.

True. If you have a list of such places, I'd help with a ticket. -- Jeff Squyres jsquyres_at_[hidden] For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
