<P>
Notes: The two approaches provided are
<pre>
PETSCSFBASIC which uses MPI 1 message passing to perform the communication and
</pre>
<pre>
PETSCSFWINDOW which uses MPI 2 one-sided operations to perform the communication, this may be more efficient,
</pre>
<pre>
but may not be available for all MPI distributions. In particular OpenMPI has bugs in its one-sided
</pre>
<pre>
operations that prevent its use.
