The new Paradigm in Computing

A small group of engineers in Switzerland have discovered what experts worldwide have been searching for.

The engineers of a Swiss company, semantic system ag, have developed a first generation computer chip that contains a holosemantic meshwork: a net of neurons and synapses similar to the biologic ideal. In other words, a chip enabled to «think» like a biologic brain. The interconnected cells process information simultaneously, adapting and learning from the intrinsic semantic patterns.

By employing a holosemantic net inside the processor, each chip contains over 25 million neurons (cell-core). Each neuron connects with other neurons, following the genetic rules of our Opti-Algorithm (a genetic algorithm). The behavior of these new generation neurons is very similar to biologic neurons. A self-organized, holosemantic meshwork is built internally in order to store any kind of data in an information structure and abstract it.

Under the scientific management of Manfred Hoffleisch it took 20 years of research to crack the neural code and to develop a «thinking» processor, which emulates the biological concept of thinking. semantic system ag then invested 4 additional years to bring this new technology to market.

Thomas Diggelmann, Chief Technical Officer of semantic system ag, says, «once the code was cracked, the most difficult challenge was finding a way to implement the new 'thinking processor' in today's von Neumann PC machines. Although the architecture of von Neumann computer is not inherently suitable for the new processing concept, the semantic system ag engineers managed to overcome this problem, successfully testing and proving the new concept on existing personal computers.»

Walter Diggelmann, Chief Executive Officer of semantic system ag, explains, «after we knew the concept worked, the next step was clear. We had to develop a new processor chip that could be inserted into every existing and new computer platform.»

Old Computer Paradigm:

Data is dumb
Programs are intelligent

The old paradigm is based on the assumption that information structures of data (intrinsic or inherent information patterns) will never be automatically detected by computing systems. Therefore, preprogrammed logic is required to recognize these information structures. However, with the new autonomic intelligence enabled processors, the old paradigm has been replaced with ...

New Computer Paradigm:

Any data contains intrinsic information in the form of various patterns (be it text, photo, audio, video, etc.)
Programs are used for communicating between humans and the machine
The intelligence in computing is found in the interaction (dialog) between the user and data, via a program
