Self-powered Computing Buoy
A computing apparatus that is integrated within a flotation module, the system obtaining the energy required to power its computing operations from waves that travel across the surface of a body of water on which the flotation module sets. Additionally, the self-powered computing apparatus employs novel designs to utilize its close proximity to the body of water and/or to strong ocean winds to significantly lower the cost and complexity of cooling their computing circuits.

- 1. A computational task processing system, comprising:
a buoyant computational task processor coupled to a first local phase array antenna, the buoyant computational task processor having a hull, a power take-off assembly for generating electricity from a movement of ocean waves, a plurality of computers, and a propulsion system; and a first remote antenna; wherein the first local phase array antenna is adapted to receive instructions from the first remote antenna and adapted to transmit results to the first remote antenna; wherein the buoyant computational task processor has a draft greater than its largest horizontal width; and wherein the plurality of computers are adapted to be powered by electricity generated by the power take-off assembly.
