This Tutorial is designed for the HDF5 users with some HDF5 experience. It will cover properties of the HDF5 objects that affect I/O performance and file sizes. The following HDF5 features will be discussed: partial I/O, chunking and compression, and complex HDF5 datatypes such as strings, variable-length arrays and compound datatypes.
We will also discuss references to objects and datasets regions and how they can be used for indexing. Participants will work with the Tutorial examples and exercises during the hands-on sessions.
