Abstract:
Transition from mainframe computers to personal computers marked a new important step in computer technology. Here, we suggest a new transition from personal computers to personal computing networks that, as proven in scientific literature, they can be more powerful and efficient in computation. An efficient tool for personal computing networks is the Distributed Intelligent Managed Element (DIME) network architecture, which extends the conventional computational model of information processing networks, allowing improvement of the efficiency and resiliency of computational processes. This approach is based on organizing the process dynamics under the supervision of intelligent agents that, knowing the intent of the underlying process, is able to optimize its execution. In this paper, we will discuss about main ideas, structural features and tentative applications of personal computing networks and will explain why the DIME network architecture is suitable to build them.
