Hello Matt, folks

You can currently use Htm-MoClu in just one computer, the issue you faced
is that it can't create hundreds of models at the same time (like its done
by the traffic example) because instantiate a Network object from Htm.java
is an expensive operation that turns the JVM unresponsive.

I'm currently working on the Release Candidate (v 1.0.0) and the only thing
missing from your specs is:

`allows POST of full model params`

Will chat over Gitter to get more details on this.

You can find an example of its usage in https://github.com/antidata/ATAD it
uses the Lift Web Framework (Comet Actors) to push updates to the browser
in real time (similar to web sockets proposition) and saves the requests  +
results into MongoDB so you can query both the data coming from outside and
the data generated from HTM (anomaly score + predictions).
One last comment is that Htm-Moclu is web framework agnostic, you can use
any web framework that works on the JVM.

Feel free to ping me if any of you like to contribute to this project.

Thanks!
