H5Part: A Portable High Performance Parallel Data Interface to HDF5
1.3.2
Particle based simulations of accelerator beam-lines, especially in six dimensional phase space, generate vast amounts of data. Even though a subset of statistical information regarding phase space or analysis needs to be preserved, reading and writing such enormous restart files on massively parallel supercomputing systems remains challenging.
H5Part consists of Particles and Block structured Fields.
