+ * \brief: compute node connectivity table, using elements connectivity table.
+ *
+ * For each node, we want to know how many elements are connected to this element, and which they are. 
+ * Given that the 2d meshes we create in ISSM are triangular for now, and they are delaunay conforming, 
+ * each triangle has a minimum angle of 30 degrees, which implies a connectivity <=6. We therefore return 
+ * a nods x 7 connectivity table, with the 7'th column giving us the number of elements connected to each 
+ * row node, and the first 6 columns giving us the elements numbers. 
+ * Amend that: sounds like some triangles get up to 9 connectivity. Take 10 to be on the safe side.
+ * In order to be compatible with matlab output, the connectivity table is given in matlab indexing (starts at 1).

+ *
+ * Dakota has its own way of running in parallel (for embarassingly parallel jobs). We do not want that, 
+ * as ISSM knows exactly how to run "really parallel" jobs that use all CPUS. To bypass Dakota's parallelism, 
+ * we overloaded the constructor for the parallel library (see the Dakota patch in the externalpackages/dakota
+ * directory). This overloaded constructor fires up Dakota serially on CPU 0 only! We take care of broadcasting 
+ * to the other CPUS, hence ISSM is running in parallel, and Dakota serially on CPU0. 
+ *
+ * Now, how does CPU 0 drive all other CPUS to carry out sensitivity analysese? By synchronizing its call to 
+ * our ISSM cores (diagnostic_core, thermal_core, transient_core, etc ...) on CPU 0 with all other CPUS. 
+ * This explains the structure of qmu.cpp, where cpu 0 runs Dakota, the Dakota pluggin fires up SpawnCore.cpp, 
+ * while the other CPUS are waiting for a broadcast from CPU0, once they get it, they also fire up 
+ * SpawnCore. In the end, SpawnCore is fired up on all CPUS, with CPU0 having Dakota inputs, that it will 
+ * broacast to other CPUS. 
+ *
+ * Now, how does dakota call the SpawnCore routine? The SpawnCore is embedded into the DakotaPlugin object 
+ * which is derived from the Direct Interface Dakota objct. This is the only way to run Dakota in library 
+ * mode (see their developper guide for more info). Dakota registers the DakotaPlugin object into its own 
+ * database, and calls on the embedded SpawnCore from CPU0.
