Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology consortium's Data Management Center employs network to manage vast amounts of seismic data The Data Management Center (DMS, Austin, TX) of the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) consortium of 64 US universities has implemented a system of Sun Microsystems workstations linked by an Ethernet network to an IBM 4381 mainframe to enable the rapid access of vast amounts of seismic data. Each earthquake typically generates several hundred million data samples that are collected from over 100 permanent seismic stations worldwide. Ruggedized Sun-3/180-based portable workstations are also transported to earthquake sites to collect, format and analyze sample data. All of the samples collected are stored on the IBM mainframe, ...
