+HDF5 is a data model, library, and file format for storing and
+managing data.  It supports an unlimited variety of datatypes, and is
+designed for flexible and efficient I/O and for high volume and
+complex data.  HDF5 is portable and is extensible, allowing
+applications to evolve in their use of HDF5.  The HDF5 Technology
+suite includes tools and applications for managing, manipulating,
+viewing, and analyzing data in the HDF5 format.
