Abstract:
1. A distributed data handling and processing system comprising: a passive cooling interface assembly within a defined area; a plurality of resource nodes collectively configured to perform a desired data handling and processing function, each of said resource nodes configured to perform one desired data handling and processing sub-function of the desired data handling and processing function, each of said resource nodes located physically remote from one another within the defined area and operably connected to said passive cooling interface assembly, as dispersed within the defined area, such that a length of a thermal path between a respective said resource node and the passive cooling interface assembly is minimized within the defined area, said plurality of nodes including at least one processing unit node configured for control, data handling, and data processing sub-functions and at least one input/output node configured for data collection and distribution with respect to an external environment; and a low latency, shared bandwidth databus for interconnecting said plurality of resource nodes.
