-.. _parallelReduce: ../core/parallel-dispatch/parallel_reduce.html
+Description
+-----------
+`Kokkos View-based <../core/view/view.html>`_ data structure that abstracts over "scatter - contribute" algorithms, where many contributors (over multiple indices) are reduced to fewer output resultants (*e.g.*, sum, product, maximum or minimum). ``ScatterView`` transparently switches between **Atomic**-,  and **Data Replication**-based scatter algorithms.  Typically, a ``ScatterView`` wraps an existing View.

         This constructor allows passing an object created by ``Kokkos::view_alloc`` as first argument, e.g., for specifying an execution space via
