Purpose of the thorn: -This thorn provides functionality to extract hyperslabs: -M-dimensional orthogonal subspaces from a given N-dimensional data space -(1 <= M <= N). +This thorn implements the following parts of the CCTK hyperslab API: -Input parameters are - - the origin of the hyperslab in the data space, - - the directions it spans, - - the extents of the hyperslab - - downsampling values into each hyperslab dimension + * the definition of local and global hyperslab mappings based on grid indices + * the extraction of local and global hyperslabs as specified by such + mappings 2. Additional information -The term hyperslab and the functionality provided by this thorn are derived -from the HDF5 API (see http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/). - -NOTE: the calling interface of PUGHSlab is going to change ! +The complete specification of the CCTK Hyperslab API and the description of +PUGHSlab's implementation of it are described in the corresponding ThornGuide +chapter for PUGHSlab (see file doc/documentation.tex). |
