 e.g. `zeromq`, `shmem` and `ofi` (in development)) to cover a variety of use cases
 (e.g. inter-thread, inter-process, inter-node communication) and machines (e.g. Ethernet, Infiniband).
 In addition to this core functionality FairMQ provides a framework for creating "devices" - actors which
-are communicating through message passing. FairMQ does not only allow the user to use different transport but also to mix them; i.e: A Device can communicate using different transport on different channels at the same time. Device execution is modelled as a simple state machine that
-shapes the integration points for the user task. Devices also incorporate a plugin system for runtime configuration and control.

 ```cmake
