The routines in this chapter implement various global communication operators
on vectors associated with a discretization mesh. For auxiliary communication
routines not tied to a discretization space see~\ref{sec:toolsrout}.

\subroutine{psb\_halo}{Halo Data Communication}    

These subroutines gathers the values of the halo
elements, and  (optionally) scale the result:

\[ x \leftarrow \alpha x \]
where:
\begin{description}
\item[$x$] is a global dense  submatrix.

\section*{Example of use}
Consider the discretization mesh depicted in fig.~\ref{fig:try8x8},
partitioned among two processes as shown by the dashed line; the data
distribution is such that each process will own 32 entries in the
index space, with a halo made of 8 entries placed at local indices 33
through 40. If process 0 assigns an initial value of 1 to its entries
in the $x$ vector, and process 1 assigns a value of 2, then after a
call to \verb|psb_halo| the contents of the local vectors will be the
following:

\section*{Usage notes}
\begin{enumerate}
\item If there is no overlap in the data distribution associated with
  the descriptor, no operations are performed;
\item The operator $P^{T}$ performs the reduction sum of overlap
elements; it is a ``prolongation'' operator $P^T$ that
replicates overlap elements, accounting for the physical replication
of data;
\item The operator $P_a$ performs a scaling on the overlap elements by
the amount of replication; thus, when combined with the reduction
operator, it implements the average of replicated elements over all of
their instances. 
%% \item The square root update option makes it possible to applythe
%% following operator: 
%% \[ x\leftarrow \sqrt{P_a} P^{T} K^{-1} P \sqrt{P_a} x\]
%% In the case of a symmetric $K$, this preserves simmetry of the overall
%% preconditioner, which would otherwise be destroyed.

\section*{Example of use}
Consider the discretization mesh depicted in fig.~\ref{fig:try8x8_ov},
partitioned among two processes as shown by the dashed lines, with an
overlap of 1 extra layer with respect to the partition of
fig.~\ref{fig:try8x8}; the data 
distribution is such that each process will own 40 entries in the
index space, with an overlap of 16  entries placed at local indices 25 
through 40; the halo will run from local index 41 through local index 48.. If process 0 assigns an initial value of 1 to its entries
in the $x$ vector, and process 1 assigns a value of 2, then after a
call to \verb|psb_ovrl| with \verb|psb_avg_| and a call to
\verb|psb_halo_| the contents of the local vectors will be the
following (showing a transition among the two subdomains)
