		    Using HDF5 with OpenMP
		    ----------------------


I.    Introduction to OpenMP

    - For shared-memory parallelism
    - A combination of library and directives
    - Available for C/C++ and Fortran
    - SGI leading effort
    - Information at http://www.openmp.org and 
      http://www.sgi.com/software/openmp

II.   Programming(SGI MPISpro compiler and C language)

    - Turn on compiler '-mp' option
    - Include 'omp.h' library in program
    - Use library functions, directives and environment variables


III.  Sample Programs

Attached are four OpenMP-HDF5 test programs.  The purpose of these tests is to 
experience OpenMP parallelism with HDF5.  All the tests were run on modi4 with 
SGI MPISpro compiler(cc) and make.   The first two are the working 
program.  The two following only work occasionally.  I modify them directly 
from hdf5/examples/h5_write.c.  If you want to try them out, the quickest way 
is 
  1.  have your hdf5 program compiled, 
  2.  go to hdf5/examples directory,
  3.  add -mp option to the end of the CFLAGS list in the Makefile.  If you 
      have the compiled program in another directory, you should go to the 
      examples in that directory.
  4.  modify the hdf5/examples/h5_write.c according to the program attached 
      here.  
  5.  use hdf5/tools/h5dump to examine the output file.



                I.   First Program

/*  
 *  This example writes 64 datasets to a HDF5 file, using multiple threads
 *  (OpenMP).  Each thread grab the lock while it tries to call HDF5 functions
 *  to write out dataset.  In this way, the HDF5 calls are serialized, while
 *  the calculation part is in parallel.   This is one of the ways to do 
 *  OpenMP computation with HDF.  As long as not to do HDF I/O in parallel, 
 *  it is safe to use HDF.
