D* is a data storage and retrieval system for advanced scientific studies. The system is designed to enable a tighter integration of data storage and data mining technologies. Through the application of innovative retrieval and clustering techniques for high-dimensional data, the system can support high-performance data access and provide data mining applications useful insights into the data that can facilitate subsequent processes of data preparation and data mining. The basic processes of D* include data clustering, space partitioning, data loading, and data retrieval based on region queries and similarity searching. D* scales well with increasing data dimensionality and works well on incremental load of data.
