HDF5: The most versatile container for sharing scientific and engineering data

When people hear this affirmation, a common reaction is, "When, HDF Group, when?" In her book How to Make Sense of Any Mess, Abby Covert reminds us to be careful and not fall in love with our plans or ideas but with the effects we can have when we communicate clearly. While I would reject the notion that "a mess" aptly describes the current state of HDF5, I want to use this short presentation to clearly communicate our plans and ideas vis-à-vis HDF5 and the community.

Abstract

When people hear this affirmation, a common reaction is, "When, HDF Group, when?" In her book How to Make Sense of Any Mess, Abby Covert reminds us to be careful and not fall in love with our plans or ideas but with the effects we can have when we communicate clearly. While I would reject the notion that "a mess" aptly describes the current state of HDF5, I want to use this short presentation to clearly communicate our plans and ideas vis-à-vis HDF5 and the community.
