Abstract

This paper describes the performance of locality-based mapping and remapping partitioners for unstructured grid. We show that the algorithm produces good mappings at a relatively low cost and can be easily parallelized. Further, the algorithm can provide remapping for incremental problems at a fraction of the total cost.
