52     * @class Decomposition
53     * Decomposition is an interface for passing out and collecting information
54     * from many processors at various stages of the main non-bonded ForceLoop.
55     *
56     * The pairwise force calculation has an outer-running loop (the "I"
57     * loop) and an inner-running loop (the "J" loop). In parallel
58     * decompositions, these loop over different groups of atoms on
59     * different processors. Between each set of computations on the
60     * local processor, data must be exchanged among the processors.
61     * This can happen at different times in the calculation:
62     *
63     * distributeInitialData (parallel communication - one time only)
64     * distributeData (parallel communication - every ForceLoop)
65     * loop over i
66     * | loop over j
67     * | | localComputation
68     * | end
69     * end
70     * collectIntermediateData (parallel communication)
71     * distributeIntermediateData (parallel communication)
72     * loop over i
73     * | loop over j
74     * | | localComputation
75     * | end
76     * end
77     * collectData (parallel communication)
78     *
79     * Decomposition provides the interface for ForceLoop to do the
80     * communication steps and to iterate using the correct set of atoms
81     * and cutoff groups.
