Disclosed is a system and a method for combining the computational resources of numerous embedded devices to enable any of them to perform complex tasks like speech recognition or natural language understanding. A distinguished master device communicates with a network of embedded devices, and organizes them as the nodes of a neural network. To each node (embedded device) in the neural network, the master device sends the activation function for that node and the connectivity pattern for that node. The master device sends the inputs for the network to the distinguished input nodes of the network. During computation, each node computes the activation function of all of its inputs and sends its activation to all the nodes to which it needs to send output to. The outputs of the neural network are sent to the master device. Thus, the network of embedded devices can perform any computation (like speech recognition, natural language understanding, etc.) which can be mapped onto a neural network model.
