The HDF-SRB model ...

is a client-server model that provides interactive and efficient access to remote HDF5 files. Like most client/server model, the HDF-SRB model is implemented on a set of client and server APIs and message passing scheme. Unlike other client/server model, the HDF-SRB model is object oriented. The client can access datasets or subsets of datasets in large files without bringing entire files into local machines.

The HDF-SRB project ...

was funded and Sponsored by The National Laboratory for Advanced Data Research (NLADR), The National Science Foundation (NFS ) Partnerships for Advanced Computational Infrastructure (PACI) Project in Support of an NCSA-SDSC Collaboration. The first phase of the project was to provide a working prototype of the HDF-SRB system.
