<TITLE> Zoltan Developer's Guide: Part Remapping</TITLE>

<A NAME="new_implementation"></A>Part Remapping</H2>
Part remapping can be incorporated into load-balancing algorithms.
The part remapping algorithm works as follows:
<ul>
<li>
After partitioning within an <a href="dev_add_lb.html"><b>ZOLTAN_LB_FN</b></a>
but before import or export lists are built, the partitioning algorithm calls
<a href="#Zoltan_LB_Remap"><b>Zoltan_LB_Remap</b></a>.
</li>
<li>
<a href="#Zoltan_LB_Remap"><b>Zoltan_LB_Remap</b></a> builds a bipartite
graph based on local import or export information (depending on which is
available in the partitioning algorithm). Vertices of the graph are
processor or part numbers used in the old (input to the partitioner)
and new (computed by the partitioner) decompositions. Edges connect
old and new vertices; edge weight for edge <i>e<sub>ij</sub></i> is the
number of objects in old part <i>i</i> that are also in new part
<i>j</i>. The bipartite graph is stored as a hypergraph, so that Zoltan's
hypergraph matching routines may be applied.
</li>
<li>
<a href="#Zoltan_LB_Remap"><b>Zoltan_LB_Remap</b></a> gathers the local
hypergraph edges onto each processor and performs a serial matching of
the vertices. This matching defines the remapping.
</li>
<li>
<a href="#Zoltan_LB_Remap"><b>Zoltan_LB_Remap</b></a> remaps the input
processor and part information to reflect the remapping and returns
the result to the application. It also builds array <i>zz->LB.Remap</i>
that is used in other functions (e.g.,
<b><a href="../ug_html/ug_interface_augment.html#Zoltan_LB_Box_PP_Assign">Zoltan_LB_Box_PP_Assign</a></b> and
<b><a href="../ug_html/ug_interface_augment.html#Zoltan_LB_Point_PP_Assign">Zoltan_LB_Point_PP_Assign</a></b>).
</li>
<li>
Using the remapping information returned from
<a href="#Zoltan_LB_Remap"><b>Zoltan_LB_Remap</b></a>, the partitioning
algorithm builds the import or export lists to return to the application.
Note: if the partitioning algorithm builds import lists, data may have to be
moved to appropriate processors before building import lists to reflect
the remapping; see <i>rcb/shared.c</i> for an example.
</li>
</ul>

<b>Zoltan_LB_Remap</b> remaps computed part (or processor) numbers in
an attempt to maximize the amount of data that does not have to be migrated
to the new decomposition. It is incorporated directly into partitioning
algorithms, and should be called after the new decomposition is computed
but before return lists (import or export lists) are created.
<b>Zoltan_LB_Remap</b> should be invoked when Zoltan parameter
<i><a href="../ug_html/ug_alg.html#REMAP">REMAP</a></i> is one.
Even when
<i><a href="../ug_html/ug_alg.html#REMAP">REMAP</a></i> is one,
remapping is not done under a number of conditions; these conditions are
listed with the description of
<i><a href="../ug_html/ug_alg.html#REMAP">REMAP</a></i>.

<TD>Upon return, a flag indicating whether remapping was actually done.
Remapping is not done under a number of conditions (described with
parameter
<i><a href="../ug_html/ug_alg.html#REMAP">REMAP</a></i>) or when the
computed remap gives a worse or equivalent result than the decomposition
computed by the partitioning algorithm.

<TR VALIGN=TOP>
<TD VALIGN=TOP><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; num_obj</I></TD>
<TD>Input: the number of objects the processor knows about after
computing the decomposition. If the partitioning algorithm computes
export lists, <i>num_obj</i> is the number of objects stored on the
processor; if it computes import lists, <i>num_obj</i> is the number of
objects that will be stored on the processor in the new decomposition.

<TR VALIGN=TOP>

<TD>
Upon input:
an array of size <i>num_obj</i> containing processor
assignments for the objects;
if <i>export_list_flag</i> == 1,
<i>procs</i> contains processor assignments
in the NEW decomposition (computed by the partitioner); otherwise,
<i>procs</i> contains processor assignments
in the OLD decomposition (input by the application).
Upon return, <i>procs</i> contains remapped
processor assignments for the NEW decomposition, regardless of the value of
<i>export_list_flag</i>.
