| Summary: | Data grid technology is developed to permit data sharing and collaboration activities
across many organizations in geographically dispersed locations. Due to
collaboration activities in distributed data grid, optimising data access is one of the
issues that needs to be carefully addressed. The process of data access optimisation
can be achieved through data replication, where identical copies of data are generated
and stored at various globally distributed sites. If the required files are replicated in
some site where the job is executed, then the job is able to process data without any
communication delay. In this thesis, a model for federation data grid system called
Sub-Grid-Federation had been proposed to improve access latency by accessing data
from the nearest possible sites. A strategy in optimising data access is based on the
process of searching into the area identified as ‘Network Core Area’ (NCA). The
proposed system will require access to be initially restricted from within the local
site. If the needed data is not found, the system will continue the search from within
a bigger scope, known as the local cluster. If the search still failed, the scope of
search will continue from within the local sub-grid and other sub-grids consecutively
until the data is successfully accessed. The performance of access latency in Sub�Grid-Federation had been tested based on the mathematical proving and simulated
using OptorSim simulator. Four case studies had been chosen and tested in Optimal
Downloading Replication Strategy (ODRS) and the Sub-Grid-Federation. The
results showed that Sub-Grid-Federation is 20% better in terms of access latency and
21% better in terms of reducing remote sites access compared to ODRS. Hence, Sub�Grid-Federation is a better alternative for the implementation of collaboration and
data sharing in data grid system. |
