+In this paper, we solve the 3D Poisson problem whose the mathematical model is

+\nabla^2 u = f \text{~in~} \Omega \\
+u =0 \text{~on~} \Gamma =\partial\Omega
+\end{array}
+\right.
+\label{eq:02}
+\end{equation}
+where $\nabla^2$ is the Laplace operator, $f$ and $u$ are real-valued functions, and $\Omega=[0,1]^3$. The spatial discretization with a finite difference scheme reduces problem~(\ref{eq:02}) to a system of sparse linear equations. The general iteration scheme of our multisplitting method in a 3D domain using a seven point stencil could be written as 
+\begin{equation}
+\begin{array}{ll}
+u^{k+1}(x,y,z)= & u^k(x,y,z) - \frac{1}{6}\times\\
+               & (u^k(x-1,y,z) + u^k(x+1,y,z) + \\

+               & u^k(x,y,z-1) + u^k(x,y,z+1)),
+\end{array}
+\label{eq:03}
+\end{equation} 
+where the iteration matrix $A$ of size $N_x\times N_y\times N_z$ of the discretized linear system is sparse, symmetric and positive definite.

+The parallel solving of the 3D Poisson problem with our multisplitting method requires a data partitioning of the problem between clusters and between processors within a cluster. We have chosen the 3D partitioning instead of the row-by-row partitioning in order to reduce the data exchanges at sub-domain boundaries. Figure~\ref{fig:4.2} shows an example of the data partitioning of the 3D Poisson problem between two clusters of processors, where each sub-problem is assigned to a processor. In this context, a processor has at most six neighbors within a cluster or in distant clusters with which it shares data at sub-domain boundaries.

 containing 50 hosts each, totaling 100 hosts. Various combinations of the above
 factors have providing the results shown in Table~\ref{tab.cluster.2x50} with a
