Abstract
A computer architecture and compansion software are described which are intended to serve the needs of intelligence, simplicity and low cost. A major objective is to reduce the need for large memory capacity and computational 'power.' The computational hardware includes a standard central processing unit (or microprocessor) augmented by analog/digital computational hardware and data acquisition circuits that allow random access to and real time processing of data derived from environmental sensors. The multiprocessing hardware consists of portions of 'cache' memory that are 'dual-ported.' The representational hardware consists of a vector generator. The software consists of a new 'language' with minimal syntax requirements and representational features that are independent of scale. It shares features with LISP, FORTH and (Hewlett-Packard) RPL but uses a parsing 'dispatcher' rather than an 'evaluator.'
