Abstract

We argue that the properties of online data make it effectively immovable. Massively parallel computations involving such data must therefore be constructed in a completely different way - one that replaces the processor-centric assumptions that underlie almost all programming models by datacentric assumptions. We discuss the implications of this change for grid architectures and their programming models.
