"Scientific Data Management in the Coming Decade," Jim Gray, David T. Liu, Maria A. Nieto-Santisteban, Alexander S. Szalay, Gerd Heber, David DeWitt, we have been writing down our "lessons learned from the SkyServer "Where the Rubber Meets the Sky: Bridging the Gap between Databases and Science," Jim Gray; Alexander S. Szalay, and experimenting with big spatial search queries using databases rather than file systems (and so going 50x faster): "When Database Systems Meet The Grid," MarĂa A. Nieto-Santisteban; Alexander S. Szalay; Aniruddha R. Thakar; William J. O'Mullane; Jim Gray; James Annis. A paper describing the spatial data algorithms I have been developing with Alex Szalay et al, " There Goes the Neighborhood: Relational Algebra for Spatial Data Search", is interesting and there are 3 more such papers in the pipeline. There are lots more of course: these are some thought pieces in preparation for LSST and the World-Wide-Telescope (Virtual Observatory): Web Services for the..
