Mm,

to be sure, if i have one processor who does:

MPI_IBcast(MPI_COMM_WORLD, request_1) // first Bcast
MPI_IBcast(MPI_COMM_WORLD, request_2) // second Bcast

it means that i can't have another process who does the follow:

MPI_IBcast(MPI_COMM_WORLD, request_2) // firt Bcast for another process
MPI_IBcast(MPI_COMM_WORLD, request_1) // second Bcast for another process

Because first Bcast of second process matches with first Bcast of first
process, and it's wrong.

Is it right?
