PADMINI: A PEER-TO-PEER DISTRIBUTED ASTRONOMY DATA MINING SYSTEM AND A CASE STUDY TUSHAR MAHULE*, KIRK BORNE**, SANDIPAN DEY*, SUGANDHA ARORA*, AND HILLOL KARGUPTA*** Abstract. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks are appealing for astronomy data mining from virtual observatories because of the large volume of the data, compute-intensive tasks, potentially large number of users, and distributed nature of the data analysis process. This paper offers a brief overview of PADMINI—a Peer-to-Peer Astronomy Data MINIng system. It also presents a case study on PADMINI for distributed outlier detection using astronomy data. PADMINI is a webbased system powered by Google Sky and distributed data mining algorithms that run on a collection of computing nodes. This paper offers a case study of the PADMINI evaluating the architecture and the performance of the overall system. Detailed experimental results are presented in order to document the utility and scalability of the system.
