+ SMPI:
+ * Hostfiles support host:nb_processes construct to deploy several processes on
+ one node.
+ * Collective communication algorithms should not crash if used with
+ improper number of nodes and report the error.
+ * SMPI now partially supports MPI_Topologies : MPI_Cart_create, MPI_Cart_shift,
+ MPI_Cart_rank, MPI_Cart_get, MPI_Cart_coords, MPI_Cartdim_get,
+ MPI_Dims_create, MPI_Cart_sub are supported.
+ * New interface to use SMPI programmatically (still depends on MSG for
+ some parts, see examples/smpi/smpi_msg_masterslave) :
+ - SMPI_app_instance_register(const char *name, xbt_main_func_t code,
+ int num_processes)
+ - SMPI_init()
+ - SMPI_finalize();
+ * Global variables privatization in MPI executables is now performed at runtime
+ with the option smpi/privatize_global_variables (default:no).
+ Limitations : Linux/BSD only, with mmap enabled. Global variables inside
+ dynamic libraries loaded by the application are not privatized (static
+ linking with these libraries is advised in this case)
+
+ Tracing:
+ * Options defined in XML work correctly now.
+
+ Java:
+ * New cmake option, enable_lib_in_jar, to control whether native libraries are
+ copied into simgrid.jar or not (ON by default). Use this option if you want
+ to reduce the size of the installed simgrid.jar, *and* the native libraries
+ are kept installed elsewhere.
+ * Surf binding with SWIG (code generated in maintainer mode only):
+ - plugin to handle callbacks
+ - CPU model only for the moment
