Title: ASTRA MISSION Post by: Astranetix on November 03, 2017, 08:56:13 PM SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT WILL BE MADE SOON! STAY TUNED! Animate & Capture the energy of Communities for Scientific Discoveries & Social TruthsAstra Supercomputer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2EbMfVT_v0 Today, there are four emerging computing challenges that require orders of magnitude more computing computer, storage, and networking resources than are currently available. These are: 1. Medical, Scientific, and Humanities Research 2. Public Verification of Information for Trust Machines 3. Big Data Analysis, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence 4. On Demand Edge Computing for Global Sensor Networks To solve the above computing challenges, we have three options. Either we build large numbers of fast Supercomputers that cost $100 Million a piece or huge Datacenters that cost anywhere from $250 Million to $1 Billion. The third option is to interconnect billions of computing devices through Internet and use their spare computing capacity to solve the above challenges. There are a number of open source „Sharing Networks‟ that interconnect computers. However, these open source „Sharing Networks‟ suffer from three fundamental problems: 1. The Convenience Problem 2. The Market-Seeding Problem 3. The Incentives Problem Astra‟s first mission is to solve the above three fundamental problems to jumpstart the market for “Online Computer Sharing”. In the second phase, Astra will focus on solving the data-security and guaranteed-performance problems https://i.imgur.com/HvI8cfU.png The Convenience Problem There are a number of open source „Sharing Networks‟ that interconnect Astra – The Social Supercomputer 8 computers. However, each „Sharing Network‟ requires a complex process of software download, installation, parameter setting, and learning to operate it. Moreover, for each computing resource (CPU, GPU, Storage, and Networking), a user is expected to download and setup separate set of software programs. In addition, the rewards offered by various „Sharing Networks‟ vary with time and location. Also, often the „Networks‟ do not disclose in advance how much a consumer will earn by renting out their spare computing and storage capacity. The blind markets just deposit certain number of tokens in a consumer‟s account after their resources have been consumed. Thus, for maximum profitability consumers are expected to download a number of ‘Sharing Network’ programs on their machines, set them up, and constantly switch among them The Market-Seeding Problem The peer-to-peer computer sharing is a brand new market opportunity. Therefore, the next big challenge is how to systematically seed and grow such a market. Seeding the market requires creating an „initial supply‟ of sharable computing resources and an „initial demand‟ in the absence of Capital for upfront investment. Astra is solving these challenges by collaborating with Rewards Time Gridcoin Storj Sia Golem Sonm iExec Mysterium IPFS Astra – The Social Supercomputer 9 existing volunteer computing communities and using its native token “STAR” to attract both suppliers and customers. The Incentives Problem Once the market is seeded, for its healthy growth we need to persuade millions of people around the world to offer their computing devices on a regular basis. It will require both emotional and economic incentives to change people‟s perception and behavior. The next two chapters discuss the innovative new incentive system that Astra has been designing using Trust Machines In order to solve the above three problems, Astra offers a unique solution of building a very powerful and yet simple Astra App and later an Astra Community Platform which would bring existing Scientific & Advanced Research Communities together with several other large Outside communities forming a Social Supercomputer. These large and diverse Communities together will be able to harness the Combined Processing Power of the Social SuperComputer for 1. Scientific & Advanced Discoveries, Research 2. Verifying Social Truths & maintaining Social Trust machines Thus making the process sustainable in the longer term through emotional & financial incentives. https://i.imgur.com/8CAX5Yh.png ASTRA Website : http://astranetix.com/ ASTRA White Paper : http://astranetix.com/assets/Astra-Whitepaper.pdf Title: Re: ASTRA MISSION Post by: szfinx on November 03, 2017, 09:12:10 PM Animate & Capture the energy of Communities for Scientific Discoveries & Social Truths Astra Supercomputer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2EbMfVT_v0 Today, there are four emerging computing challenges that require orders of magnitude more computing computer, storage, and networking resources than are currently available.

Actually too broad in my opinion . if insisting with this: they would surely fail!

Actually too broad in my opinion . if insisting with this: they would surely fail! let us not hurry with the conclusions...1 thing is certain..if you want to make a hit in this madness of crypto world you have to actually bring something new in the entire infrastructure..not necessary the case here.Title: Re: ASTRA MISSION Post by: reeljade on November 03, 2017, 10:43:02 PM r u related with astra corp on the automotive industry sir .. ??
