FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: cost of performing complex analyses of financial trends using software is considerably reduced by distributing computational power needed for carrying out analysis and a computing task between a large number of separate or grouped network computational nodes. To this end, the computing task is split into a plurality of subtasks. Each subtask is carried out by one information processing device to obtain a plurality of solutions. The solutions are then merged to obtain a solution of the computing task. Entities controlling the information processing devices are rewarded for using information processing devices associated with them. Algorithms can be altered over time. One or more altered algorithms are then selected in accordance with a given condition.
EFFECT: providing distributed computational power on a large scale.
