<div dir="ltr">Hi,<br><br>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">My name is Santhilata. I am a research
student in the department of Informatics at King's college London, UK.</p><p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%"> I have attended IVOA-2011 in Pune, India and then I have observed that IVOA is not exactly working in the area of reducing large data transfers. In a typical virtual observatory scenario, a community of like minded astronomers would query for same data repeatedly. With huge number of columns and millions of rows, when a query needs data from multiple (distributed) databases, a distributed caching mechanism is necessary.</p><p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">I am
working on the benefits of caching partial queries as data objects
from a community cache. This exactly suits for astronomical data as, the typical queries can be moulded as full / partial data objects. This particular quality enables us to find patterns in the user queries and use those patterns for cache refreshing. I would like to extend this work to develop mobile cache systems.<br></p><p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">I would like to present my work at the forth coming IVOA to get suggestions and further ideas. Please suggest me whether this suits to your agenda.</p><p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%"><br></p><p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">- Regards,</p><p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">Santhilata K.V<br></p><p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%"><br></p><p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%"><br></p>
