Abstract :
We investigate the performance and the scalability metrics of the Event-based Infrastructure and consistency model of the IDIOM (Internet Documentation and Integration of Metadata) framework that is for federating online digital entities. The IDIOM consists of tools and services for supporting Cyberinfrastructure based scientific research. This system supports a number of existing online Web 2.0 research tools (social bookmarking, academic search, scientific databases, journal and conference content management systems) and aims to develop added-value community building tools that leverage the management and the federation of digital entities and their metadata obtained from multiple services. We provide the performance and the scalability experiment results and conclude with a discussion of further research opportunities in this proposed research.
