Abstract
The rapid development on computer technologies gives us a lot of variations when we use a computer in data analysis. In addition, the computer network like the Internet has become popular all over the world. This means most persons can collect any kind of data easily when they want to analyze the data properly. To utilize the powerful resources and analyze huge data, we survey recent variations on fast computing environments, review some studies related to parallel computing mainly, and offer some discussions in terms of computational statistics.
