A system to generate a web index includes a computing device having a processor and a memory operatively coupled to the memory. The computing device is configured to access a plurality of webpages through a network along a directed route. The computing device is also configured to generate an index corresponding to the plurality of webpages. The computing device is further configured to distribute a digest corresponding to the index to one or more additional computing devices in the network.

Distributed digital currency mining to perform network tasks

A system and method include a wireless node with a scheduler and a harmonizing controller connected with the node. The harmonizing controller includes a processor and a memory, where the memory stores instructions, which when executed by the processor, causes the processor to receive a radio signal, process the radio signal to determine bits of the signal, and synchronize a wireless schedule of the scheduler with a schedule of other nodes based on the bits to perform neighborhood harmonization.

System and method for resolving neighborhood wireless network affairs with radio signals

A method for determining a derived geographic location of a target Internet host includes identifying plural landmark Internet hosts communicatively coupled with the target Internet host by a network. The method also includes measuring network latencies of probe packets transmitted to the target and landmark Internet hosts along different network pathways and calculating relative distances between the target Internet host and one or more of the landmark Internet hosts based on the network latencies. The method further includes comparing the relative distances to identify at least one of the landmark Internet hosts that is geographically closer to the target Internet host than one or more other landmark Internet hosts and determining the derived geographic location of the target Internet host based on a geographic location of the at least one of the landmark Internet hosts that is geographically closer to the target Internet host.
