Self-Organizing Computational Substrates (SOCRATES) is a project seeking radical breakthroughs toward efficient and powerful data analysis available everywhere, from the simplest sensor node to the most complex supercomputer.
SOCRATES is a long-term time horizon project that will exploit novel substrates that support self-organization through local interactions to create a theoretical and experimental foundation for a new computing paradigm.
Such a complex systems approach to analytics opens for a radical breakthrough in the field of computing, alleviating main problems of contemporary computer systems relating to energy efficiency, scalability, and self-learning.
