Gcell paper

These talk about “gcell”, our SPE scheduler and off-load mechanism.

Right now I’m working on a general MP-aware scheduler which, when
complete, will allow us to transparently take advantage of multicore
and SMP machines. The MP-scheduler is also required for us to be able
to make good use of gcell in the GR framework.

This is all still a work-in-progress. Don’t get too excited yet, but
there should be some great stuff by the end of the summer…
