I need a way to partition a physical three-dimensional space across a mesh of nodes such that each node has as close to a cubic subdivision as possible. For example, x=53, y=26, z=44 distributed across 32 nodes should give me 32 subdivisions of size x=13.25, y=13, z=11. The exgrid* functions in the Express software environment on the Intel Delta (our hardware target) would split this (I think) as x=6.625, y=26, z=11, which is not acceptable for the algorithm I need to use. If someone has come up with an efficient way of doing this or has a reference, please let me know. -- Kian-Tat Lim (ktl@wag.caltech.edu, KTL @ CITCHEM.BITNET, GEnie: K.LIM1) Ex-System Manager, Materials & Molecular Simulation Center, Caltech Henry Spencer left-of-|, Steve Lamont p*, Margaret "*" Puckette signature fan
