A. Lucid’s proprietary technology simultaneously solves for the malignancy of nodes and links in a network, a sharply different approach from historical methods, which only analyze nodes and links separately. Of course, the probability that an actor or a link is malignant can only be determined in the context of both. Only Lucid’s approach can accurately identify hidden networks without prior knowledge of their existence.

A. Lucid is a graph analysis application that must be run on a high-performance system appropriate for the size of the dataset. That system may be a single CPU server or a massively parallel cluster. However, in all instances, its user interface will be accessible on a standard desktop computer.

A. Lucid’s technology scales to the size of the applied dataset. Therefore, the more nodes and links to be analyzed, the greater the computing power required for a timely analysis. Lucid is designed take advantage of massively parallel computing environments, if available, but will run on a UNIX system of any size.

A. Lucid is designed to support existing information assets. Implementations will vary in complexity, but will typically not require a major integration effort on the customer’s part.
