An Architecture for Spread Spectrum Computation




This is an unsuccessful proposal to Facebook about an
an intermediate Instruction Set Architecture for Spread Spectrum Computation. We target nano-services constructed 
from lambdas as a backend from an intermediate system, to allow for fine grain, and elastic, fault tolerant 
computations. Was an extension of an earlier idea by Steve Hand.

We believed it fitted in their research call topics on
Scalable, elastic, reliable distributed;
Programming languages&compilers for platform agnostic; and
Resource provisioning for efficient ML.

I guess it was slightly too ambitious:-)
