About this technology
Overview
HighTower Software, Inc. has developed a commercial software application originally designed at JPL that helps users identify deviations from norms out of massive quantities of data. The commercial product is known as CyberGrid and the same software is still supporting NASA's Voyager, Galileo and Cassini missions. CyberGrid generates 3-D graphs of data and has been used in AIDS research as well as e-commerce applications.
