Decentralized Computing and Alternative Architectures

Distributing computation beyond central facilities: volunteer computing, open compute networks, training distributed across remote sites, and blockchain-based architectures. Excludes traditional cloud, which belongs to 7.2, quantum and neuromorphic computing, which belong to 7.6, and federated learning as privacy protection, which belongs to 6.5.
