摘要：Methods and systems for parallel computation of an algorithm using a pluralityof nodes configured as a Howard Cascade. A home node of a Howard Cascade receives arequest from ahost system to compute an algorithm identified in the request. Therequest is distributed to processing nodes of the Howard Cascade in a time sequenceorder in a manner to minimize the time to so expand the Howard Cascade. Theparticipating nodes then perform the designated portion of the algorithm in parallel.Partial results from each node are agglomerated upstream to higher nodes of thestructure and then returned to the host system. The nodes each include a library ofstored algorithms accompanied by data template information defining partitioning of thedata used in the algorithm among the number of participating nodes.
