Charm++ parallel programming system

[Jonah Miller <jonah.maxwell.miller AT gmail.com>]

Hello everyone,

I am a member of the spectre collaboration, which is working on building 
a large-scale relativistic astrophysics code. We are currently 
investigating Charm++ as an underlying framework.

I am trying to figure out the best way to do large-scale output in 
Charm++. I see that there is some capability, in the form of the CkIO 
library, but I can't figure out how to use it. Is there some 
documentation describing how to do file output? Or are there some 
examples that I could look at? I've found the source code, and the 
paper  describing it (http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/CLUSTER.2011.82), but 
(possibly due to my newness to the framework), I still have no idea how 
to actually call the library in a program.

I'd appreciate any guidance you can offer. Thanks very much for your time.

Best,
Jonah Miller
