The Expectations And Possibility Of Adaptive AI Hardware

The Fourth Industrial Revolution, first coined by Klaus Schwab in his 2015 article in Foreign Affairs, represents the revolutionary shift in how we as a society integrate technology into our day-to-day. We are seeing emerging technology breakthroughs in robotics, autonomous vehicles, energy storage, material sciences, and nanotechnology among other fields, transforming existing processes and generating dialogue on their implications. Artificial Intelligence (AI) sits at the center of this discourse, and is poised to solve fundamental challenges and create value across all sectors.

High Performance Analysis and Control of Complex Systems Using Dynamically Reconfigurable Silicon and Optical Fiber Memory

This is Lars Wood’s only published paper, invited to appear in the proceedings of the first IEEE workshop on FPGAs for Custom Computing Machines in 1993. This paper is significant in that it demonstrates the expanse of FCCM computing using a non-numerical paradigm for numerical computations within a completely asynchronous optoelectronic machine. This paper is referenced as prior art for patents in the space, including one for interconnected optoelectronic FPGAs. The paper is considered a vision statement for FCCM in 1993.
