Parallel I/O
A diagram to help explain parallel netCDF. |
| 13.1 |
Introduction to Parallel I/O
Parallel I/O allows many processes to read/write netCDF data at the same time. |
| 13.2 |
The pNetCDF Package
The pnetcdf package from Argonne and Northwestern can be used for parallel I/O with classic netCDF data. |
| 13.3 |
Parallel I/O in NetCDF-4
NetCDF-4 exposes the parallel I/O features of HDF5. |
| 13.4 |
Building NetCDF-4 with Parallel I/O
You must build netCDF-4 properly to take advantage of parallel features. |
| 13.5 |
Using Parallel I/O in NetCDF-4
How to actually use parallel I/O in netCDF-4. |
| 13.6 |
Collective and Independent Operations with Parallel I/O in NetCDF-4
Some netCDF operations are collective (must be done by all processes at the same time), and others are independent (can be done by any process at any time.) |

Parallel I/O Example
This example is from nc_test4/tst_parallel.c, and is run by make check on platforms with MPI/IO support. |
