1. Using the Hibernate Package for Caching MDSplus Data Student Ajith M Jose (u4083453) Supervisors Henry Gardner, Raju Karia

2. Using the Hibernate Package for Caching MDSplus Data MDSPlus The data produced in Nuclear fusion experiments are stored in a software tool known as MDSPlus MDSPlus System is a kind of file system Though it works it is not optimized for efficiency of data acquisition Client software called EScope is used to connect to the MDSPlus and access the data

3. Using the Hibernate Package for Caching MDSplus Data Current way of Working of MDSPlus When MDSPlus receives a client request (request from EScope) it finds the data in the files and loads it to the memory and sends to the user MDSPlus Server Database/ Files EScope

4. Using the Hibernate Package for Caching MDSplus Data Problems with the current way of working of MDSPlus 1.Data is not cached in the MDSplus 2.Researchers has to wait for the same amount of time when accessing the same sets of data which has already accessed (Researchers need to obtain the same sets of data from the MDSplus many times ) 3.Researchers need to install software packages on their computer to run the EScope to connect to the MDSplus

5. Using the Hibernate Package for Caching MDSplus Data Solution to the Caching Problem Implement the open source software Hibernate for caching the data at the MDSplus to provide better efficiency acquiring experiment data (Already completed by former escience student Shi Hu) I will be working on: Solution to the Software dependency problem Use servlets to program a new server and program the Escope client as an applet which can be used easily in any web browser. So that the clients do not need to install anything in the client computer. Improving the Caching Try the possibilities of further improvements on caching
