ParMetis

Category: Libraries-Math

Description

ParMETIS is an MPI-based parallel library that implements a variety of algorithms for partitioning unstructured graphs, meshes, and for computing fill-reducing orderings of sparse matrices. ParMETIS extends the functionality provided by METIS and includes routines that are especially suited for parallel AMR computations and large scale numerical simulations. The algorithms implemented in ParMETIS are based on the parallel multilevel k-way graph-partitioning, adaptive repartitioning, and parallel multi-constrained partitioning schemes.

Use

ParMetis is available as a module either as part of Cray's petsc module or as a build provided by NICS. To get parmetis as part of the Cray petsc module:

module load petsc
ftn test.f90 
To get the build provided by NICS,
module avail parmetis
module load parmetis
ftn test.f90 ${PARMETIS_LIB}
