Hi,

    I am curious if there is an advisable strategy to add nodes and
elements to the ParallelMesh?

    If an initial approximate mesh partition is available from a
space-filling algorithm, then is it OK to add the partitioned nodes to the
ParallelMesh on its respective processor? Following this, how does one add
the elements? Is it safe to add all elements that a node on a processor
connects to? If so, what does one do about nodes that the element might be
connected to, but are not stored on the processors?

    On the other hand, is it better to have an initial partition of
elements (as opposed to nodes), and then one can add elements and only
relevant nodes to the ParallelMesh on a specific processor?

    In either case, if I am assigining consistent IDs to the nodes and
elements before adding to ParallelMesh, would this be enough to ensure
consistency of node and element data?

     I would appreciate some guidance.

Thanks,
Manav
