// Namespace with some utility functions for G4 MPI integration.
// Main utilities:
// G4mpi::Merge(...) : Merge results via a semi-optimized communication
// patterns between ranks. Note that this implementation
// is not topology aware. This means that MPI_Reduce and
// MPI_Gather are more performant. However if you cannot
// implement an appropriate MPI reducer or you cannot efford
// the memory overhead of Gather, this can be used instead of
// p2p communications.

// Simple data type representing a rank
typedef unsigned int rank_t;
// A couple of sending/receiving ranks
typedef std::pair<rank_t, rank_t> couple_t;
// This map represent, for each cycle (key) a set of communications
// pairs
typedef std::map<int, std::vector<couple_t>> commMap_t;
// This function takes as input a vector of rank_t objects representing
// a communication node identified by an ID (rank:int).
// It returns a map of cycle:int -> vector<pairs<rank_t> >
// Representing a sequence of communciation cycles. At each communication cycle
// one or more p2p communications are established: in the pair the first element
// is the sender and the second element of the pair is the receiver
// At the end of the cycles all communications have been done to rank 0
// For example with 4 nodes: [0,1,2,3] we have:
// Cycle 0: (3->2),(1->0)
// Cycle 1: (2->0)
// With 5 nodes:
// Cycle 0: (4->3),(2->1)
// Cycle 1: (3->1)
// Cycle 2: (1->0)
// The algorithm can be used to implement a communication across mpi ranks
// optimizing the network trafic. Each rank (the nodes) can send/receive to another node.
// Once they have sent out the payload they become empty and non-active anymore.
commMap_t buildCommunicationMap(std::vector<rank_t>& input);
// Performs merging to rank 0 using the provided sender, receiver and barrier functions.
// CommSize is the size of the communicator and myrank is the rank of the caller
// For example: assume a class UserMerger has two members Send(uint) and
// Receive(uint) and we are using a MPI::Intracomm object as
// communicator, then to use this function the ranks can:
// using std::placeholers::_1;
// std::function<void(unsigned int)> sender =
// std::bind(&Merger::Send,&mergerInst,_1);
// std::function<void(unsigned int)> receiver =
// std::bind(&Merger::Receiver,&mergerInst,_1);
// std::function<void(void)> barrier =
// std::bind(&MPI::Intracomm::Barrier,&commInst);
// G4mpi::Merge(sender,receiver,barrier,commSize,myrank);
