DMNetworkAddSubnetwork#

Add a subnetwork

Synopsis#

#include "petscdmnetwork.h"  
PetscErrorCode DMNetworkAddSubnetwork(DM dm, const char *name, PetscInt ne, PetscInt edgelist[], PetscInt *netnum)

Collective

Input Parameters#

dm - the DMNETWORK object
name - name of the subnetwork
ne - number of local edges of this subnetwork
edgelist - list of edges for this subnetwork, this is a one dimensional array with pairs of entries being the two vertices (in global numbering of the vertices) of each edge,

[first vertex of first edge, second vertex of first edge, first vertex of second edge, second vertex of second edge, etc]

Output Parameter#

netnum - global index of the subnetwork

Notes#

There is no copy involved in this operation, only the pointer is referenced. The edgelist should not be destroyed before the call to DMNetworkLayoutSetUp()

A network can comprise of a single subnetwork OR multiple subnetworks. For a single subnetwork, the subnetwork can be read either in serial or parallel. For a multiple subnetworks, each subnetwork topology needs to be set on a unique rank and the communicator size needs to be at least equal to the number of subnetworks.

Example usage#

Consider the following networks:

A single subnetwork:

 network 0:
 rank[0]:
   v0 --> v2; v1 --> v2
 rank[1]:
   v3 --> v5; v4 --> v5

The resulting input network 0:

  rank[0]:
  ne = 2
  edgelist = [0 2 | 1 2]

  rank[1]:
  ne = 2
  edgelist = [3 5 | 4 5]

Two subnetworks:

 subnetwork 0:
 rank[0]:
   v0 --> v2; v2 --> v1; v1 --> v3;
 subnetwork 1:
 rank[1]:
   v0 --> v3; v3 --> v2; v2 --> v1;

The resulting input subnetwork 0:

  rank[0]:
  ne = 3
  edgelist = [0 2 | 2 1 | 1 3]

  rank[1]:
  ne = 0
  edgelist = NULL

subnetwork 1:

  rank[0]:
  ne = 0
  edgelist = NULL

  rank[1]:
  edgelist = [0 3 | 3 2 | 2 1]
