It is very cumbersome if I need to run code with different grids and for different -np value. Please tell me how to call METIS partitioning routine from within the program run so that whatever -np value would be we are at ease.<br>
<br>THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR ATTENTION. <br><br>Regards,<br>Amjad Ali.<br>
