/// \brief Functionality for parallel computation
///
///        Currently a layer over MPI with functionality LPJ-GUESS might need,
///        but could be implemented as a layer over something else in future.
///
///        The fact that MPI might not be available on the system where LPJ-GUESS
///        was compiled is hidden by this module by simply pretending to be a
///        "parallel" run with just one process.
