We have made every attempt to post all presentations from HDF/HDF-EOS Workshop VI online. Most are available in at least two formats (PowerPoint and PDF), however a few are only available in PDF format. In order to help you choose the viewing format approriate for your needs, we have also posted the size of each presentation next to the format. The list of available formats appears below the title of each presentation in the agenda table below.

Introduction to HDF5 for HDF4 Users PowerPoint [96 KB] PDF [188 KB] |
| HDF5 is a complete redesign and reimplementation, so users familiar with HDF4 will find themselves unfamiliar with HDF5. HDF5 can do everything HDF4 can do, although the details are different. This tutorial is designed to present a series of common cases of HDF4, and show how to do the same thing using HDF5. For example, this tutorial will show how to use HDF5 to do similar data operations to HDF4: • Vgroups • SD datasets • Attributes and annotations • Raster Images • Vdata (tables) This tutorial is intended for people who are very familiar with HDF4 but have never used HDF5, or would like to learn to use HDF5 most effectively. | ||

Advanced HDF5: Overview of Parallel HDF5 and Performance Tuning in HDF5 Library PDF [624 KB] |
| HDF5 is designed to work well on high performance parallel systems and clusters. This tutorial will review the high performance features of HDF5, including: • Design of Parallel HDF5 Library • Parallel HDF5 Programming Model and Environment • Performance and performance tuning for sequentail and parallel HDF5 applications • Benchmarks results for different platfroms including LINUX clusters It is desired that participants are familiar with MPI and MPI I/0 and have a basic knowledge of sequential HDF5 Library. The lecture will prepare them for the Parallel I/O hands-on session. | ||
