+SOP OVERVIEW

+-----------------------------
+GOAL
+ The goal is to build a framework for designing neural network that can support any kind of neural component.
+ Furthermore to design neurons capable of been tuned to perform ltp.
+ The framework has four main modules, each described below:
+ * Model module- the core module of the framework, consist of models of the components and the
+ base-interface definitions of all components of the neural-network. This is the most important
+ module in my opinion. The model will only hold the data, the actual behaviour of the model will l
+ ikely be encapsulated in a Task-implementation class. The persistence-data-format will have
+ to be as efficient as possible because of the size of the data involved. For example a neural-network
+ might consist of 100,000 neurons, data-generated might capture 10 properties of the neuron,
+ size of each property might be an int, this translates into 40bytes/neuron. If data is generated
+ every second, within one minute, we would have captured 40 x 100K x 60 = 240Mbytes,
+ you can guess what happens within couple of hours :).
+
+Target Audience
+ Our "clients" are developers, neuroscientists, academes and researchers.
+
+USE CASE:
+ [[1]] A developer seeks to understand underlying principles of a specific type of neural-network.
+ His goal is to design future systems based on this neural-network-pattern. With SOPF he/she should be able to -
+ * build a custom component that he/she finds useful in his neural-network,
+ * execute the neural-network across multiple machines
+ * visually examine the data generated by the neural-network
+\n
+ [[2]] A fictious company needs a software that controls a bionic-limb. Writing this software
+ in a conventional OOP platform would be quite difficult and requires lots of code.
+ The company hires developers with SOP skill to build a neural-system based on SOPF,
+ that meets the requirements for the bionic-limb motion.
+\n
+ Neural-networks are best for solving complex problems that require adaptation, such a system will require much more resources using OOP.
+ Although, the principles of designing feasible neural-network systems is beyond the current-scope of this project.
+
+MODULES
+ * Cache module - The neural objects are partitioned between caches, caches support partitioning the data
+ among cache-nodes. The cache also persist the data permanently in its machine. There will be a
+ backup cache that will aggregate data from cache-nodes into one location. The cache synchronizes
+ global-unpartitioned data across its nodes at a "round" level. The Cache is used by the kernel.
+ Performance is of absolute paramount in the cache.
+ * Kernel module- a distributed platform that supports running a synchronized execution of all the objects,
+ this platform ensures that neural network execution is distributed and scalable.
+ The kernel synchronizes the execution of neurons accros multiple instance at the end of each round
+ via the cache. The unit of time in the framework is a round (synonymous with a cycle).
+ * Design module: This module consist of two eclipse plug-ins: one for designing the neural-network;
+ this is the design-plugin, it requires connecting objects and setting their properties,
+ it would also permit running arbitrary functions that are loaded dynamically from jars provided at compile time, the arguments of the function wlll be selected from the designed-neural-network. The other plug-in is for displaying data generated during the neural-network-execution and requires a lot more knowledge of graphics.
+\n If you are interested there is documentation in the subversion repository, that you can browse.
+Module-specific documentation is located in the site/apt folder of each of the four maven modules in the repository,
+the location is https://sop.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/sop/trunk/sop/<module-name>/site/apt/.
+Replace <module-name> with cache,design,kernel or model. Each of this documents has more details
+pertaining to the module, the documentation requires more work but it is farther than code at this point.

+ <h2> Project Information </h2>
+ <h3> Purpose: </h3>
+ <p>
+ <strong>SOPF</strong> was conceptualized to provide an extensible framework that enables productive design,
+ analysis, and execution of arbitrary-sized neural-networks (or neural-system) on a distributed, scalable, high-throughput
+ runtime platform. This framework empowers synapse-oriented-programming; a process where,
+ developers solve problems via neural-networks. The framework is designed to be extensible for custom components
+ (with only about seven core interfaces).
+ </p>
+ <h3>
+ Project Goals
+ </h3>
+ <p>
+ The framework's goals are as follows:
+ </p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>Provide a set of core-interfaces and their implementing models that have properties that can be tuned to enable association between components. </li>
+ <li>Provide a scalable distributed execution platform for the neural-network since, some neural-system might consist of billions of components. </li>
+ <li>Design the tools and libraries that will enable productive neural-system design. </li>
+ <li>Provide tools that can be used to study the neural-system and the data generated by the system.</li>
+ </ol>
