Expert ponders how algorithms might function across space - Tech and Science Post

Will algorithms designed for interconnected computers hold up if some of the machines are not here on Earth but flying about in space, onboard satellites or spacecraft? Siddhartha Jayanti, assistant professor of computer science, is asking—and beginning to answer—questions that computer scientists must tackle as humans increase their footprint in space, bringing their machines with them. Jayanti studies the design and behavior of distributed com…
