    1 # Summary 
    2  
    3 OSPRI is a new one-sided runtime communication system for leadership-class supercomputers.  It aims to provide more flexible semantics compared to existing one-sided communication systems (e.g. [http://www.emsl.pnl.gov/docs/parsoft/armci/ ARMCI]) and target modern architectural trends by providing a thread-safe implementation. 
    4  
    5 Unlike its predecessor, [https://trac.mcs.anl.gov/projects/a1/ A1], OSPRI will provide only functionality above and beyond what is available MPI, hence is designed to run side-by-side with MPI, not as an independent runtime.
