Abstract: We describe a domain decomposition algorithm for use in the
parallel adaptive meshing paradigm of Bank and Holst.
Our algorithm has low communication,
makes extensive use of existing sequential solvers, and
exploits in several important ways data generated as part of the
adaptive meshing paradigm. Numerical examples illustrate the
effectiveness of the procedure.
