A contrasting approach, distributed data analytics, where code and models for training and inference are distributed to the places where data is collected, has been boosted by two recent, ongoing developments: increased processing power and memory capacity available in user devices at the edge of the network, such as smartphones and home assistants; and increased sensitivity to the highly intrusive nature of many of these devices and services and the attendant demands for improved privacy.

Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices are known to be the source of many security problems, and as such, they would greatly benefit from automated management.

We therefore evaluate our approach using hardware resources and data sources representative of those that would be available at the edge of the network, such as in an IoT deployment.

Raft's approach is surprisingly efficient given its simplicity as, unlike Paxos, it does not require log entries to be exchanged during leader election.

We continue to see increasingly widespread deployment of IoT devices, with apparent intent to embed them in our built environment likely to accelerate if smart city and related programmes succeed.

We propose there is a need for a technical platform enabling people to engage with the collection, management and consumption of personal data; and that this platform should itself be personal, under the direct control of the individual whose data it holds.
