Astronomical archives of the future: a Virtual Observatory [PDF]
Future Generation Computer Systems, 1999 Astronomy is entering a new era as multiple, large area, digital sky surveys are in production. The resulting datasets are truly remarkable in their own right; however, a revolutionary step arises in the aggregation of complimentary multi-wavelength surveys (i.e. the cross-identification of a billion sources).
