Abstract

Systems and methods are provided herein that implement and utilize temporal state machines and other temporal computational/memory circuits. For example, a temporal state machine is provided that comprises a temporal computational unit comprising at least one circuit to perform a time-domain operation, and a temporal memory unit. Both the temporal computational unit and temporal memory unit can operate using solely, or partially, time-encoded wavefronts. The computation unit accesses time-encoded wavefronts from the memory and can output and write time-encoded wavefronts back to the memory.
