Inspiration
The power of mobiles in todays world are under utilized. So we decided to use them to solve complex problems faced by airlines by renting its computation power in exchange for Airline rewards.
What it does
A main server takes parallel algorithms and distributes it into consumer mobile phones who have previously given us permission to utilize thier computational power. In exchange we provide the mobile phone users with Airline points which they can redeem in thier travels.
How we built it
We configured a server which has the code which decides how the data is distributed among nodes(mobiles). It finds out all the live nodes and and the takes appropriate decision. The mobiles compute and return the results back to the server. We built all of this in Python
Challenges we ran into
We couldn't figure out how to make a network connection seemlessly among the nodes and also on how to divide the data.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We overcame all the challenges we faced. We could dynamically find out the number of live nodes in a network and distribute the data accordingly
What we learned
We learned how distributed computing works. We learnt how this concept can be applied to make Airline industry profitable
What's next for Super Computer
We will deploy it real time to the customers of Air Vistara to find out how it is received
