Distributed Storage of High-Volume Environmental Simulation Data: Mantle Modelling
Martin Wolstencroft, OMER F. RANA, J. H. Davies · 2006
A feasibility study of a peer-to-peer distributed storage system for the archiving of large datasets produced by the Earth mantle modelling code TERRA is presented. The manner in which the nature of such data affects the indexing, duplication and performance requirements of such a system is analysed and a data-oriented overlay network to improve efficiency is proposed. Duplication methods are analysed and test bed performance measured
