HOW TO CYBERANALYSIS?Copyright 2028 Knowmore Learning

What is cyberanalysis and what is it used for? The statistical techniques of cyberanalysis are used to extract useful data from the large, publicly-available databases, and use this information to optimize inventory control and transport, maximize sales figures and price, correct power distribution, and perform many other fundamental tasks of the modern technological world.

What is the history of this subject? Although the discipline of statistics reaches all the way back to Pascal, the field of cyberanalysis begins with Obradts, Inozemovich, and the flowering of probability theory in 1920-1940 Soviet Russia. The new practical branch of computerized administration was called "fairytale theory" from its ability to detect fabrication. Over the next 60 years, this approach gradually improved until it was able to detect very general patterns with acceptable efficiency in an extremely large data set.

How does cyberanalysis work? This computation relies on comprehensive systems, that is, large distributed systems able to download and process, at least, the entire Web once a month. Although every cutting-edge system has some large laboratory in charge of refining and maintaining it, there's public software which handles this problem too. A statistician can use it on their home computer.

How much data is on the Web? As of July, 2027, there were around 170,000 TB of public data, or two hundred quadrillion bytes, and an estimated 1,000,000 TB of private data. That's enough to fill 600,000 SOL disks!

I think a cyberpunk livejournal RPG would be neat. Here is my propose for such a thing.

SETTING: The freelance layer of some blurred sophisticated underworld. The year is really 2005, but for the sake of argument we'll say it's the future. Life is cheap, but preserve the delicate membrane that keeps you under the radar of the police. Science now understands the human mind. The last thirty years have brought artificial intelligence, direct neural recording, true projector-field holography, kings and queens made vast and unknown and beyond. The contrast is way up, but all the edges have become fuzzy somehow.

Life turns under you, and Lewis Carroll said: run as fast as you can to stay still. If you want to get ahead, run twice as fast as you can...
This is your mission, citizens of the staggering future: to fix, or break to steal, or buy to burn or build to sell.

DETAILS: If enough people are interested, there'll be a community, and I (or some other GM) come up with a plot and give each player their goals; then they post stuff to get closer to that. The characters should be unattached members of the underground, with connections and histories of some kind.
