Abstract

Clusters and grids of workstations provide available resources for data mining processes. To exploit these resources, new distributed algorithms are necessary, particularly concerning the way to distribute data and to use this partition. We present a clustering algorithm dubbed Progressive Clustering that provides an ''intelligent'' distribution of data on grids. The usefulness of this algorithm is shown for several distributed datamining tasks.
