Abstract : In this paper we present a middleware infrastructure, called DataCutter, that enables processing of scientific datasets stored in archival storage systems across a widearea network. DataCutter provides support for subsetting of datasets through multidimensional range queries, and application specific aggregation on scientific datasets stored in an archival storage system. We also present experimental results from a prototype implementation. 1,
