Design discussion

Potential design flaws

Below are some points which are potential design flaws. To keep the design consistent, we put them down here until the design is updated.

###Notes by Rich:

• Missing FCA-3 handle based completion
• UD - consider reliability at the higher level
• tag matching may also have low-level api
• stateless offload - fragmentation
• flow control - missing
• atomics - masked extended atomics
• check that the data type will support MPI data semantics

Notes by Pasha and Yossi:

---

• consider separating memory managers from transports
• consider CUDA support with the unified memory model
