...response.
We will have to decide whether it is appropriate to allow the memory system to indicate a context based on its context number in the processor or based on a more global process number. Using context number requires less bits of information, but can run into problems when the processor wants to change the contexts it has loaded.

...complete
Operations such as Read and Write Initiate which do not require a response in order for execution to continue are not included in this category.

...way.
We assume here that the memory system can deal with presenting a single completion operation each cycle. It will queue up completion to present sequentially, if necessary.

...possible.
i.e. ...before they go away. For instance, another context could require the same cache location.

...context.
We could always store the whole state of the pipeline, but that sounds like too much trouble to arrange.

...processor.
...well, it is intended to document these formats, but insufficient thought has gone into the details of these formats to date and the document does not exist, yet.

...context.
perhaps there will at most be one cycle of overhead in certain cases.

...possible
Or, perhaps, just be very hard
