<div style="FONT-SIZE: 13px; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma">Am a new PETSc<a></a><a></a> user trying to make use of the matrix level to create and operate on matrices whose memory exceeds that available on any one node. To populate a distributed dense matrix with results
of other matrix calculations we are trying to use MatSetValuesBlockedStencil<a></a><a></a>. Two of the inputs to that function require structures of type MatStencil<a></a><a></a>. After searching the archives, tutorials, examples, and Google, I can not find
anything that explains what the values of MatStencil<a></a><a></a> are meant to do relative to where in the target matrix to place the block of values. Would someone<a></a> please point me in the right direction?</div>
