1. A method of leveraging industrial asset computing capacity into a distributed computing system, the method comprising:

  • receiving from a requesting entity a request for available computing capacity, the request including at least one computational task;

    determining the available computing capacity across a network of interconnected industrial assets, each industrial asset including at least one central controller;

    allocating at least one of the interconnected industrial assets to perform at least a portion of the computational request;

    providing the allocated industrial assets with computer executable instructions and data related to performing the computational request;

    performing at least a portion of the computational request at the allocated industrial assets;

    obtaining the results of the performing step from the allocated industrial assets; and

    returning the obtained results to the requesting entity.
