More Book Details

Description of the Book:

The Department of Defense has massive amounts of data that require analysis. Purchase and maintenance of supercomputers to process this information, or leasing of supercomputer resources, is very expensive. DoD already has a supercomputer available to it via distributed or grid computing by making use of the millions of PCs within the department. Using CPU and memory scavenging agents DoD has the potential to harness over 70 Petaflops of computer capacity using existing equipment with minimal additional investment. This platform could then be used to perform advanced modeling, advanced simulation, deep data mining and evolutionary analysis
