Distributed Data Mining

Distributed computing plays an important role in the Data Mining process for several reasons. First, Data Mining often requires huge amounts of resources in storage space and computation time. To make systems scalable, it is important to develop mechanisms that distribute the work load among several sites in a flexible way. Second, data is often inherently distributed into several databases, making a centralized processing of this data very inefficient and prone to security risks. Distributed Data Mining explores techniques of how to apply Data Mining in a non-centralized way.
