FONR Optical Computing ST
Abstract
As noted in our original proposal, most of our effort has been in hybrid analog-digital algebra and in massively parallel processing based on hologram arrays. Both programs have exceeded our announced goals as will become clear from what follows. In the process of those primary studies, we developed a number of other worthwhile applications in optics as well. Future work will aim almost exclusively at the holographic interconnect as this is likely to be of most immediate value in meeting announced SDI/ONR future program needs and we have reached a satisfactory conclusion to the algebra study by laboratory demonstration and theoretical justification of the results previously obtained only by computer simulation and justifying arguments. This report is comprised of overview and detail parts for each application. The detail is relegated to appendices to make reading of the overview more convenient.
