This is part of the DECI enabling support of PRACE and supports a DECI 8 project which uses the Pencil-code to simulate the development of Planetesimals. The support project wants to improve the Pencil-code in two ways:
- Replacing the presently used FFT library with the FFTW library
- Upgrading the existing I/O architecture to a more flexible parallel I/O
