A computing system and method for selecting parameters for a data mining modeling algorithm. The computing system comprises a computer readable medium and computing devices electrically coupled through an interface apparatus. A data mining modeling algorithm and test data are stored on the computer readable medium. Each of the computing devices comprises a data subset from the a plurality of data subsets. The data mining modeling algorithm is distributed simultaneously using a selected technique to each of the computing devices. An associated parameter setting for each data mining modeling algorithm in each of the computing devices is adjusted simultaneously. Each associated parameter setting comprises a different parameter setting. Each data mining modeling algorithm comprising the associated parameter setting is run simultaneously to generate an associated data mining model on each of the computing devices. A data mining modeling algorithm comprising a best parameter setting is determined.
