netcdf-4 superseding PNetCDF?

[John Urbanic]

To all you helpful subscribers:

 

Our initial investigations into which method to use to parallelize the IO in
the MFIX community code have suggested that, on the strictly coding side,
either netcdf-4 parallel routines or PNetCDF would be sufficient.  However,
the code maintenance issue seems to greatly favor netcdf-4 as it seems the
PNetCDF community is declining in activity.  This reflects my experience
with forums and the age of support documents.  I have the impression that
this trend is accelerating.

 

However, as you can guess, we lack real experience or knowledge in this
domain, so I would welcome some better informed opinions.

 

Thanks in advance,

John Urbanic
