+ * @brief This file contains the API of a flexible counter. The
+ * counter can be configured during its initialization to be
+ * centralized or decentralized. The centralized configuration makes
+ * it possible to read the counter value extremely efficiently, but
+ * updates of the counter value can easily cause contention. The
+ * decentralized configuration has the reverse trade-off (i.e.,
+ * updates are efficient and scalable but reading the counter value is
+ * slow and may cause contention).
