[Mpi3-hybridpm] Telecon 10/6 at 12pm central

[James Dinan]

Hi All,

We discussed adding another split_type to the MPI_Comm_split_type 
proposal (ticket 287) to broaden the use of this routine from shared 
memory to being able to split based on topology.  Text would look 
something like:

MPI_COMM_TYPE_NEIGHBORHOOD - this type splits the communicator into 
subcommunicators, each of which encapsulates a neighborhood of 
processes.  Implementations may provide info keys that can be used to 
specify the criteria used to group processes, e.g. using a feature of 
the system topology.

Overall, we agreed that this would be a good addition.  We want to 
solicit feedback from other members of the working group (especially 
Ron, who is the ticket's owner) as to whether we should add this to the 
existing text or create a new ticket and pursue this independently. 
We're planning another formal reading of this ticket at the October meeting.

Thanks,
  Jim.
