Hi,
I haven't used the more mpi process also but still am still unable to reduce my exection time.Here is my code http://seshendramln.blogspot.se/ 
and please help me in solving. 
In this code iam getting the same execution time in i increase or decrease the no.of nodes.

thanking you


With regards
seshendra

You probably need to be more fine-grained in your timing.  Find out exactly what is increasing in time.  This is a common symptom for codes that do not scale well -- i.e., adding more MPI processes actually causes it to slow down.

The problem the execution time is increasing rapidly like NON parallel program-55 sec, and for parallel program 2-nodes--60sec , 4-nodes 74sec, 8-node--120 sec and for 16 nodes---for 180 sec. can i know my problem in parallel version actually the time needs to be decreased but it is increasing i dont the reason. i have calculated my time as shown below
