Abstract

A network device is provided for distributing computing operations via data communication in a network, the device including: a network interface device to connect the network device to the network; and a processor device to divide an arithmetic operation into partial arithmetic operations to be calculated locally and partial arithmetic operations to be calculated remotely, to locally calculate the partial arithmetic operations to be calculated locally, and to provide them as locally calculated partial arithmetic operations, the network interface device being further to send the partial arithmetic operations to be calculated remotely to the network and to receive them as remotely calculated partial arithmetic operations, and the processor device being further to calculate the arithmetic operation based on the remotely calculated partial arithmetic operations and the locally calculated partial arithmetic operations. A level measuring device, a method of distributing computing operations, and a nontransitory computer-readable storage medium are also provided.
