Agent Based Computing Machine

Abstract

This SBIR developed a new class of computer architecture called an "agent based computing" module (ABC Machine) that enables "cognitive computing" algorithms to be implemented effectively on a large scale. The ABC Machine is a biologically inspired architecture derived from the field of "membrane computing" and is also based upon "statistical dataflow computing". It operates in local contexts over string operators. The ABC Machine is motivated by analyzing the biochemical processing in cells. The architecture is suited for computing problems not easily solved by traditional machines. It has the properties of very high parallelism, distributed and redundant processing, and graceful degradation. Phase 1 demonstrated advantages over traditional AI algorithms on conventional machines.
