Computation efficiency can be improved through multigrid inversion [ 33, 40, 41] and parallel computing, allowing for finer discretization and higher resolution in a limited computation time.
Advocates insist the idea could change the world of computing, allowing for digital smart locks that open when a fee is paid, or letting musicians release songs for collaborators to rebuild in real time.
To write our scripts and to test them effectively, we used IPython [54], which is the system for interactive scientific computing allowing, for example, to execute certain parts of Python's code independently, without loss of the whole context (currently read data, variables, etc).
For each solution obtained, a stochastic flexibility index is computed, allowing for the drawing of trade-off curves for investment decision support.
Summary estimates of compliance, and of associations between compliance and features of study conduct, were computed allowing for clustering of data within studies.
For the dominance tests, standard errors of the ordinates of curves and of differences in ordinates are computed, allowing for dependence between curves where appropriate [ 39, 40].
Cheap computing also allows for the rapid iteration of ideas at a low cost.
Increasingly cheap computing storage allows for the accumulation of ever more "big data"; the question is how companies will be able to make use of it.
