| - | We're mainly interested in the scalability of distributed algorithms/mechanisms and in the design of fault-tolerant protocols. In other words, the CPU speed is not our main concern, but the number of interconnected devices is. Therefore, for our specific use cases a large number of cheap and slow devices is preferable to a small number of powerful ones. | + | We were mainly interested in the scalability of distributed algorithms/mechanisms and in the design of fault-tolerant protocols.
