Abstract

DDAS is an acronym which stands for distributed data analysis system and it is the subject of this paper. Its purpose is to perform all possible linear regressions on otherwise intractably large data sets using the power of desktop grid computing. Data sets are distributed piecewise to grid clients for computation and after the results have been computed, they are analyzed by the system. In such a manner large data sets are divided into tractable pieces so that DDAS succeeds in analyzing very large data sets, where serial approaches remain intractable.
