Quanto Quantum Microprocessor Technology.

The best type of micro-processor for use in computers and droids has been a fascination of mine for years. Currently available technologies are not satisfactory, in every aspect, for my logical ambitions. Quanto and O3S (Object Oriented Operating System) and O3i! (Object Oriented Operating Intelligence) are being designed together as a unit and contain many new ideas and some are presented here.

Yes the current Mescitadel Think Tank microprocessor project is now officially called 'Quanto'. The @on project has been dropped and merged into a superior project technology. It is my intension to make Quanto the worlds first functioning quantum processor. Significant advances in architecture have been made and I am very enthused by the results. Even now I'm tooling up for research into this area and I'm preparing the advances that will be required in my vCAD software.

As some may know researchers in the field regard the quantum processor as the ultimate in computer execution science having the potential to be an order of magnitude faster than any current processor concept. A quantum processor is known solely for the electrical physics of its operation. A significant variety of descriptions exist being the fact that it is said that nobody really knows how to build a quantum processor. But this is about to change seeing how I have devised a workable quantum processor concept.

The typical Quanto processor will contain multiple cores with cache and will support multitasking and sundry proprietary security features. Each core will have 10 ($16) general registers, some have a specific purpose and the rest are general purpose, and an ALU that supports the fhex number system however radix 10 numbers will require the support of a software emulator.  The registers themselves are sized by opcodes according to needs.

It's instruction set is redesigned to be logically improved. The usual addressing modes will be supported along with these 2 extra types. It will support both BP(base pointer) and IP(instruction pointer) indirect with index. It will also have specialized cache control loop instructions.

As to the requirement of O3S it will support floating memory segmentation and access restriction logical protocols and a register will serve as BP. The memory model itself will be flat. Eventually the data/prefetch memory buss itself will be an impressive 400 ($1024) bits wide! Or in other words 80 ($128) bytes wide! The reason why is because memory buss contention sets a practical limit as to how many cores can share it. This helps to alleviate this problem. Also this means that video rendering speeds will be very impressive. Fast enough for artificial intelligence recognition protocols. However it is my intention to make the first implementations of the device like a 10($16) bit MCU with real world interface capability such as a A/D and D/A converter and other useful functions.

As you can probably surmise Quanto will be a computer system on a chip. It is designed to boot O3S and O3i! from internal ROM for security reasons. O3S implementations will support typical PC style application development methods of course. G@ is my new programming language especially made for this use and is a more logical solution to application programming.

In addition their are two new concepts that I intend to employ in the Quanto processor. First I'm developing the theoretical basis for an entirely new digital switching device that I call a Logister. This is a new concept quantum gate electronic device that I intend to use as a replacement for the transistor in all of my digital designs because of its superior performance characteristics. According to my calculations Quanto should achieve a clock frequency greater than 100 GHz and it will not require the use of cooling fans.

And also in the chip manufacturing industry you'll here of them speak of the limits of small they can achieve and they explain it as the physics of the transistor no longer hold at that small of a size and it no longer functions properly. Sometimes this explanation can vary slightly. The point I'm making is this. I have discovered what is happening and I have the solution for it. The logister will come into the new frontier of small and when I say this I mean quantum computer small. I'm also working on the concept for a new thin film integrated circuit manufacturing technique.

Another device that I'm currently conceptualizing is an entirely new high capacity persistent memory device. It consists of a passive cube in which the surface is covered in micro electronics intended to access the cube in a 3 dimensional manner. It will be a rugged device as opposed to the hard disk drive which although the capacities are quite high, they are simply too fragile for the uses I require.

Their will be two types of boot ROM in Quanto. OTP (1 time programmable) and flash both of which must be programmed by connecting an external JTAG like device. In addition attempting to reprogram an OTP device will destroy it for security reasons. Whether one is surfing the intra-net or has droids one wants to be certain of the loyalty of their machines.

Quanto, @on, G@, @3S, @3i! and O3i! are the property of the Mescitadel Think Tank and also claims O3S provided none can prove otherwise. What I mean is that the term O3S has been out their for some time but I know of none who actually have a functioning O3S computer operating system. O3i! (Object Oriented Operating Intelligence) is the primary artificial intelligence project of the Mescitadel Think Tank.

$ denotes a radix 10 number and its absence denotes a fhex radix $16 number.
