I am hoping for someone to point me in the right direction (examples, info) on how best to handle the need for some processor heavy computations that might best be executed with C++ math libraries.
example scenario pseudocode: 1. application user clicks "give me 10 movies to watch" button after entering age, iq, time of day, and how much time he/she has to watch. (some post data needed as calculation parameters) 2. application pulls some historical data from database: an array of [person id, age, iq, movie watched, time watched, movie length, rating user gave] -- say a million data points in an array 3. application then needs to apply a sophisticated math model to all data points and includes other hard-coded parameters. 4. assume after watching one movie, all the hard-coded parameters change as a side effect, so the algorithm should rank all movies in likelihood loved from 1 to n, choose the top ranked movie for user, and then iterate for the next 9, re-applying the math model is this best handled by forking a child_process? use node-ffi? wrap a c++ object that can handle the math and pass the parameters? thanks a million -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
