Interlinked tuples in coordination namespace

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1892923
A system and method for supporting tuple record interlinking in one or more tuple space/coordinated namespace (CNS) extended memory storage systems. A system-wide CNS provides for efficient storing and communicating of data generated by local processes running at the nodes, and coordinated to generate a union/intersection of multiple CNS where tuple records are interlinked in multiple CNS hashtables, and/or share tuple data between two sets of processes that are part of different CNSs. Local node processes further generate multi-key tuples where two or more tuple records are interlinked within the same CNS hash table, thereby permitting a look up of the tuple data by either tuple name/keys. A CNS controller further provides a tuple iterator for a key-value storage in a CNS system that adds more links between tuples enables creation of iterator structures such as linked list or trees etc. of “different” tuples in a tuple database.
