Custome Hardware Integration Platform

I am trying to develop a custom hardware integration device that will support a very high throughput and request response times. The idea revolves around having a hardware-device(doesnt have to be microprocessor based) that provides multiple 'arrays' of processing units that can each process an incoming message [login to view URL] also uses an inbuilt load balancer that can route the message to a channel that is least busy or free. A third feature of the product would be a dynamic memory refresh whereby a component's memory can be dynamically refreshed without having to bring down the entire device. There is an existing patent application on this concept and the project involves two [login to view URL] I involves brainstorming the potential solutions and Phase 2 will invlove prototyping. This project is for Phast 1 only.I am specifically interested in hearing from folks with experience of parellel processing and grid computing. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
