Design Concepts for an Optical Numerical Computer Based on the Residue Number System.

Abstract

In this report, the residue number system is reviewed and various implementation concepts for a residue based numerical optical processor are presented. A detailed design for an optical processor based on the mapping approach is given. A preliminary estimate on the performance levels are provided together with recommendations on immediate and future developmental needs and plans. (Author)
