Method of and system for aggregating into a relational database model the state of an ad hoc network comprised of uniquely addressable distributed sensor nodes in communication using networking protocols with one another through links and to a database server through access points. A relational database logical design resident on the database server is dynamically updated with respect to the sensor network's current and historical topological information through the use of a traversal and interrogating network modeling agent. The distributed sensors nodes may be mobile, and may communicate by wired or wireless means through networking protocols such as the Internet.

An SIMD array processor having a scalable and flexible architecture. The SIMD array architecture includes an array of processing elements, a plurality of processor controllers, and at least one other computer system. A system area network interconnects at least one user computer with the processor controllers and the computer system; and, a storage area network interconnects at least one storage device with the processor controllers and the computer system. The SIMD array architecture is adapted to allow different user computers to use different portions of the array of processing elements and/or different processor controllers and computer systems simultaneously. The array of processing elements has a hierarchical structure comprising backplanes, PCB's, ASIC's, and arrays of processing elements. The SIMD array architecture can be scaled by increasing the quantity of backplanes, PCB's, ASIC's, and/or by increasing the size of the arrays of processing elements. The SIMD array architecture can also be flexibly modified to achieve arrays of processing elements with different aspect ratios by selectively accessing data paths interconnecting the processing elements.
