Advanced HDF5 Features

This tutorial is designed for the HDF5 users with some HDF5 experience.

It will cover advanced features of the HDF5 library for achieving better I/O performance and efficient storage. The following HDF5 features will be discussed: partial I/O, chunked storage layout, compression and other filters including new n-bit and scale+offset filters. Significant time will be devoted to the discussion of complex HDF5 datatypes such as strings, variable-length datatypes, array and compound datatypes.
