Abstract
A system to provide on-demand fetching of sequential sets of seismic data to local memory from slower storage mediums prior to performing computing operations, such as horizon auto-tracking, amplitude extraction and seismic attribute generation. As a result, the performance of the storage infrastructure (e.g., hard drives, storage filer 'file server' over network, etc.) is maximized and the local memory/cache speed is fully utilized to deliver optimal system performance even when working with large seismic datasets that exceed the storage capacity of the local memory.
