s in the algorithm).

   <p>As mentioned above (see <a href="Load-balancing.html#Load-balancing">Load balancing</a>), the data will be divided
equally among the processes if <code>n0</code> is divisible by the
<em>square</em> of the number of processes.  In this case,
<code>local_ni</code> will equal <code>local_no</code>.  Otherwise, they may be
different.

   <p>For some applications, such as convolutions, the order of the output
data is irrelevant.  In this case, performance can be improved by
