Abstract

Abstract Method and means in the field of data processing, relating to the subfield of artificial or machine intelligence. These are concerned with finite strings of arbitrary symbols and their manipulation, including operations on strings, processes defined in terms of said operations, devices that embody said processes, and combinations of said processes and devices with conventional data processing systems to effect useful processing of data. The most important operation and process are, respectively, Tetracoding (TTC), and Basic Intellector Process (BIP). INTELLECTOR is a hardware implementation of BIPs, which is a functionally equivalent variant of BIP. One or more INTELLECTORs are connectable to conventional digital data processing systems, combining their respective autonomic and programmed data processing capabilities.
