+ Msg
+ * New function: MSG_load_platform_script()
+ to make possible using a lua script instead of XML files to set up platforms
+ * New function: MSG_set_function
+ to associate functions to processes, used when bypassing the parser
+ Lua Bindings
+ * add layer to set up environment and bypass the XML surf parser
+ * modify the entry point, to take into consideration when lua is used only as a platform generator
+ SURF
+ * add new callbacks to the CPU & netwok models to create resources
+ no need to pass through the parser callbacks to do so.
+ * add new function to create routes table via the routing model
+ * add generic functions in the public interface
+ that allows the user to call SURF 'create_resource' methods from a lua script.

+ * New function: SIMIX_process_set_function()
+ called by MSG_set_function
SimDag
-
* Change the way a task is considered as ready. Instead of removing
dependencies when a task is done, a counter is decreased. This way,
it is always possible to reach ancestors thanks to the
simulated" (SD_RUNNABLE) used by the simulation kernel.
* Add an example that scheduling a DAX on an heterogeneous platform
using a Min-Min strategy
-
+ * new function SD_dotload(char*) to load a DAG described in dot
+ format. This loader and the corresponding examples require the
+ installation of the graphviz library.
+
+ SIMIX
+ * Change the underlying waiting queue in semaphores so that a process
+ can wait on several of them simultaneously (as in waitany).
+ * Fix the way to handle tokens in semaphores so that all access patterns
+ work: {acquire, acquire_timeout, waitany} / {release, release_forever}.

XBT
* New data container: setset (set of sets of elements)
* New module: mmalloc (mapped malloc)
