Big Data Engineering - Now With More Neuroscience

Friday, November 28, 2014 - 07:40 in Mathematics & Economics

We're being overrun with Big Data and that has created a need to increase computing and networking power to make it possible to manage the vast amount of information available. Toward that goal, a new generation of Information and communications technology (ICT) systems has been inspired by the operating principles of the brain.Stemming from the premise that the brain is an ideal model for information processing, in recent years there have been multiple attempts at bio-inspired systems. Some examples are neuronal networks for learning systems or ant algorithms used to trace optimal paths in communication networks. read more
