IBM Watson is not that concept?
I think history (bussiness) tends right now to a decentralized model for
large systems, which is not clear if it’s an advantage for now. Rather than
emulating centralized computing systems across many machines. Anyway, the
main interest for researching about is still keeping the bussiness running.
And for now Unix descendants do it really well.
