ABSTRACT:: Sequoia 2000 is a research initiative funded by the
Digital Equipment Corporation to develop large capacity object
servers to support global change research. Existing hardware,
software, network technology, and visualization techniques are
inadequate to the task of handling the terabytes of data which
global change researchers need to  access and manipulate. The
purpose of Sequoia 2000 is to develop the needed technology 
and to create an electronic repository in which researchers'
data sets, programs, documents, and simulation outputs can be
stored and made available to multiple users. Sequoia 2000 is a
multidisciplinary, multi-campus, multi-agency project; researchers
are from the fields of computer science, information, and global
change, and are located in private industry, universities, and
state and federal agencies.
