+In this  {{:doku:mpitime.c|example file}}, t1=MPI_WTIME() and t2=MPI_WTIME() enclose the region wich should be timed.
+There are two possibilities. Either a MPI_Barrier can be set before each time call. Then the time measured is the time needed that all MPI processes are finished. Or t1 and t2 are defined without a barrier, yielding the execution times for the individual processes.
