HDF5 for Real-Time and/or Embedded Test Data

HDF5 for Real-Time and/or Embedded Test Data
2
Flight tests have multiple data sources
Non-time based data
Can have many data sources for a single event.
Need different data rates, content, views of data.
HDF5 lets us manage those sources, mixing all
types of information In a single file
HDF5 supports different views, access patterns,
fast I/O all in one package.
3
Avoiding stovepipe solutions
Current testing applications use different
formats, develop codes independently.
HDF5 lets us share tools and analysis codes,
saving effort and cost.
4
Task 1 Fixed variable length record storage,
access
Need simple, efficient API for a range of
applications and environments.
HDF5-based storage and API will yield cost
savings, ultimately leading to standardized
formats, software, tools.

Tasks

• Make the HDF5 Table API efficiently support fixed
  and variable length time-sequenced test data in a
  way that works across a range of applications and
  environments.
• Support horizontal view during collection, and
  vertical views during analysis
• Handle high I/O data rates, and high volume
• Accommodate multiple streams
• Deal with dropouts
