    The author describes the full domain partition distribution of adaptively refined grids over a distributed memory parallel computer. In this approach, each processor has a compatible grid that covers the full domain, but with refinement confined to the processor's partition of the total grid. Outside the partition area, a small number of extra grid elements is needed. With the proposed approach a parallel multigrid method can maintain a multigrid rate of convergence with only two communication steps per V-cycle.
