/**
* @brief Send data to another process.
*
* This routine executes a potentially blocking send with tag @p tag
* to the process with rank @p dest. It can be received by the
* destination process with a matching @c recv call.
*
* The given @p value must be suitable for transmission over
* MPI. There are several classes of types that meet these
* requirements:
*
* - Types with mappings to MPI data types: If @c
* is_mpi_datatype<T> is convertible to @c mpl::true_, then @p
* value will be transmitted using the MPI data type
* @c get_mpi_datatype<T>(). All primitive C++ data types that have
* MPI equivalents, e.g., @c int, @c float, @c char, @c double,
* etc., have built-in mappings to MPI data types. You may turn a
* Serializable type with fixed structure into an MPI data type by
* specializing @c is_mpi_datatype for your type.
*
* - Serializable types: Any type that provides the @c serialize()
* functionality required by the Boost.Serialization library can be
* transmitted and received.
*
* - Packed archives and skeletons: Data that has been packed into
* an @c mpi::packed_oarchive or the skeletons of data that have
* been backed into an @c mpi::packed_skeleton_oarchive can be
* transmitted, but will be received as @c mpi::packed_iarchive and
* @c mpi::packed_skeleton_iarchive, respectively, to allow the
* values (or skeletons) to be extracted by the destination process.
*
* - Content: Content associated with a previously-transmitted
* skeleton can be transmitted by @c send and received by @c
* recv. The receiving process may only receive content into the
* content of a value that has been constructed with the matching
* skeleton.
*
* For types that have mappings to an MPI data type (including the
* concent of a type), an invocation of this routine will result in
* a single MPI_Send call. For variable-length data, e.g.,
* serialized types and packed archives, two messages will be sent
* via MPI_Send: one containing the length of the data and the
* second containing the data itself.
*
* Std::vectors of MPI data type
* are considered variable size, e.g. their number of elements is
* unknown and must be transmited (although the serialization process
* is skipped). You can use the array specialized versions of
* communication methods is both sender and receiver know the vector
* size.
*
* Note that the transmission mode for variable-length data is an
* implementation detail that is subject to change.
*
* @param dest The rank of the remote process to which the data
* will be sent.
*
* @param tag The tag that will be associated with this message. Tags
* may be any integer between zero and an implementation-defined
* upper limit. This limit is accessible via @c environment::max_tag().
*
* @param value The value that will be transmitted to the
* receiver. The type @c T of this value must meet the aforementioned
* criteria for transmission.
