Abstract
A method and apparatus for using a tree-structured cluster as a library for a computing grid. In one embodiment, a request for computation is received at a cache node of the cluster. The computation requires data from an other cache node of the cluster, and not present in the cache node receiving the request. The other cache nodes of the cluster are polled for the required data. An instance of the required data stored in the other cache node of the cluster is replicated to the cache node receiving the computation request.
