 Like many numerical models, PDAF uses the MPI standard for the parallelization. In the description below, we assume that the model is parallelized using MPI.
 
-PDAF supports a 2-level parallelization: First, the numerical model can be parallelized and can be executed using several processors. Second, several model tasks can be computed in parallel, i.e. a parallel ensemble integration can be performed. This 2-level parallelization has to be initialized before it can be used. The example in `testsuite/src/dummymodel_1D/` includes the file `init_parallel_pdaf.F90` that can be used as a template for the initialization. The required variables are defined in `testsuite/src/main/mod_parallel.F90`, which can also be used as a template. If the numerical model itself is parallelized, this parallelization has to be adapted and modified for the 2-level parallelization of the data assimilation system generated by adding PDAF to the model. The necessary steps are described below.

 === Serial assimilation system ===
 
-The data assimilation program can be compiled for serial processing without linking a real MPI library. As in the PDAF code calls to MPI functions are implemented, the file `testsuite/src/main/nullmpi.F90` should be compiled and liked. An example for this gives the case `make.arch/linux_gfortran.h`. `nullmpi.F90` provides the functionality of the MPI functions for the case that only a single process is used and hence no real communication is performed.

 Even without parallelization, the call to `init_parallel_pdaf` described above is still required. The routine will simple initialize the parallelization variables for a single-process case.
