Dear all, Dear Jeff,
I have three communicator:

the standard one:
MPI_COMM_WORLD

and other two:
MPI_LOCAL_COMM
MPI_MASTER_COMM

a sort of two-level MPI.

Suppose to have 8 threats,
I use 4 threats for run the same problem with different value. These are
the LOCAL_COMM.
In addition I have a MPI_MASTER_COMM to allow the master of each group to
communicate.

These give me some problem.


For example, I have to exit to a cycle, according to a check:

IF(counter.GE.npercstop*nParticles)THEN
        flag2exit=1
        WRITE(*,*) '-Warning PSO has been exit'
        EXIT pso_cycle
     ENDIF

But this is difficult to do since I have to exit only after all the threats
inside a set have finish their task.

Do you have some suggestions?
Do you need other information?

Really Really thanks



Diego
