Traditional centralized clustering clusters a data set stored in a single site, but it cannot satisfy the clustering requirements when data is distributed, while distributed clustering can satisfy this need, for it extracts classification mode from distributed data. This paper surveyed and analyzed distributed clustering algorithms. Firstly, it classified existing distributed clustering algorithms. Then, it compared basic ideas, advantages and disadvantages of each class of these algorithms. Finally, it used two data sets--Iris and Wine to compare several distributed clustering algorithms with two metrics: clustering accuracy and clustering time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
