DPP is a new approach to information processing that vastly improves computer performance. Computers traditionally have been very inefficient when dealing with unstructured data.
Computers can process numbers faster than they can process variable-length data.
DPP allows computers to process ragged data at the same speed that they process numbers. This opens up solutions for new breeds of problems. With the explosion in information, businesses have to deal with a large amount of unstructured data. In addition, the use of the Internet in business processes has forced companies to deal with highly dynamic data. DPP is well suited to solving both these problems simultaneously.
