Just a random thought: would it be better to give these functions human-readable names (receive, nonblocking_receive) instead of MPI-derived names? People familiar with MPI still have to look at our headers to determine that they want Parallel::irecv rather than Parallel::Irecv (as well as to see the function arguments), so I don't know if using the same name truncations buys us anything. --- Roy |

That would be preferable to me.

No opinion really, as long as the comments say which MPI function it's equivalent to/going to call. -- John |
