The p4est library

The p4est software library enables the dynamic management of a collection of adaptive octrees, conveniently called a forest of octrees. p4est is designed to work in parallel and scale to tens of thousands of processor cores.

The p4est software library is under active development and will be released to the public when it is completed.

The p4est software library uses libsc written by the same authors for basic helper functionality such as logging, array and hash data structures, parallel statistics, and more. libsc also integrates the third-party libraries zlib and lua. libsc is free software released under the GPLv3. You can download the current development snapshot from its git repository: libsc.
