<div dir="ltr">Dear Matthew and Mark,<div><br></div><div>Thank you very much for the reply! Much appreciated!</div><div><br></div><div>The question was about a 1D problem. I think I should say core 1 has row 1:32 instead of 1:32, 1:32 as it might be confusing.</div><div><br></div><div>So the overlap is extended to both directions for the middle processor but only toward the increasing direction for the first processor and the decreasing direction for the last processor. In 1D, this makes sense as the domain is contiguous. However, in 2D with domain decomposition with spacial overlaps, this overlapping would not work as one subdomain can have several neighbor domains. Mark mentioned generalized ASM, is that the correct direction that I should look for?</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards.</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Apr 13, 2022 at 9:14 PM Matthew Knepley <<a href="mailto:knepley@gmail.com">knepley@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">On Wed, Apr 13, 2022 at 9:11 AM Mark Adams <<a href="mailto:mfadams@lbl.gov" target="_blank">mfadams@lbl.gov</a>> wrote:<br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Apr 13, 2022 at 8:56 AM Matthew Knepley <<a href="mailto:knepley@gmail.com" target="_blank">knepley@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">On Wed, Apr 13, 2022 at 6:42 AM Mark Adams <<a href="mailto:mfadams@lbl.gov" target="_blank">mfadams@lbl.gov</a>> wrote:<br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">No, without overlap you have, let say: <div><div>core 1: 1:32, 1:32</div><div>core 2: 33:64, 33:64</div></div><div><br></div><div>Overlap will increase the size of each domain so you get:</div><div><div>core 1: 1:33, 1:33</div><div>core 2: 32:65, 32:65</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I do not think this is correct.
