The model for I/O is very synchronous, providing a single function related to I/O. This function can be used to invalidate a file, preempting any subsequent operation on it. The file will then have to be closed, and is necessary reopened based on a new communicator (a smaller version of the original one).<div><br></div><div><div><div>The current version if the FT proposal is attached to this email, and can be accessed in the working group wiki @ <a href="https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/wiki/User_Level_Failure_Mitigation">https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/wiki/User_Level_Failure_Mitigation</a>.</div><div><br></div><div>We expect to have a final version of the proposal by Monday noon EST, as requested by the MPI_Forum to be able to have a first reading at the next meeting.
