Cybersecurity in a single algorithmic space of distributed computing and in a global computer environment

The purpose of the article is to study cybersecurity in a single algorithmic space of distributed computing, taking into account the developmental features of the global computer environment. To achieve the goal of the study, the methods of generalization, analysis, and synthesis were used in the work. Fundamental problems of integration of heterogeneous global computer environment resources are singled out. The causes of heterogeneity and ways to eliminate its negative consequences are shown. As applied to distributed socio-technical systems, the basic concepts of network-centric control are defined. The principles of formation in the global computer environment of a mathematically homogeneous algorithmic space of distributed computing and network-centric control are outlined. The system-forming possibilities of the new space are discussed: seamless programmability, cybersecurity and reliability of distributed computing. The necessity of building a new element base in the form of mass single-chip network computers with a non-microprocessor architecture is substantiated. It is shown that, by eliminating the fundamental causes of heterogeneity, they open up the possibility of forming in the global computer environment a mathematically homogeneous, seamlessly programmable and cybersafe algorithmic space of distributed computing for a holistic solution of strongly connected network-centric control problems by arbitrarily large sociotechnical systems.
