/** \page collective_calls Collective Calling Requirements in Parallel HDF5 Applications
 *
 * \section sec_collective_calls_intro Introduction
 *    This document addresses two topics of concern
    in a parallel computing environment:
    <ul><li>HDF5 functions that must be called collectively and when
        <li>Properties that must be used in a coordinated manner
    </ul>

    The term <i>@ref options</i> in the "Additional notes"
    column indicates that the first item in the "Function"
    column of the same row is a macro that is selectively mapped to one
    of the two immediately-following functions.
    For example, #H5Acreate is a macro that can be mapped to
    either #H5Acreate1 or #H5Acreate2.
    This mapping is configurable and is explained in
    \ref api-compat-macros.
    The macro structure was introduced at HDF5 Release 1.8.0.
 *
 * \section sec_collective_calls_func Always collective
 *    The following functions must always be called collectively.
