Whoa! I remember nothing in ITC discussions where it was agreed that
DPI-based calls should be made 'on controlled clock edges'. In fact I'm
very technically interested how processor-based technologies (Xtreme,
Hammer)
might forego any clock based infrastructure creation entirely.

In a mixed SCEMI 1.1 / SCEMI 2.0 environment, proper results are what's 
important, not a low-level specification of how to implement based on clock
edges.
