Abstract

An approach is provided for providing biometric information processing using distributed computation. A biometric information processing infrastructure determines to receive an input including, at least in part, biometric information. The biometric information processing infrastructure selects one or more analyses for processing the input. The biometric information processing infrastructure also determines one or more processes associated with the one or more analyses. The biometric information processing infrastructure further determines to derive one or more computation closures from the one or more processes. The biometric information processing infrastructure determines to decompose the one or more computation closures for distribution in one or more computation spaces.
