Distributed data processing in computerized experimental research systems using asynchronous self-defining data flows

Cybernetics Aims and scope

Conclusions

The development of the proposed computational schema has pursued several interrelated aims. First, we have developed a tool for the description of distributed computations in computerized experimentation systems, which in a certain sense is invariant to possible realizations. This is the dominant aspect of our paper. In the future, we will attempt to formalize the intuitively defined constructs of AS-schemas in order to be able to estimate the correctness of a particular schema and to perform functionally equivalent transformations. Second, the implementation of AS-schemas using various technical components requires evaluation of the efficiency of alternative implementations. The development of simulation tools for empirical analysis of the mapping of AS-schemas onto hardware resource graphs is an independent problem Third and last, the conceptual model of parallel computations proposed in this paper has provided a foundation for a flexible software-hardware complex for the construction of distributed data acquisition and processing systems.
