Optical content-addressable parallel processor: architecture, algorithms, and design concepts.
Associative processing based on content-addressable memories has been argued to be the natural solution for nonnumerical information processing applications. Unfortunately, the implementation requirements of these architectures when one uses conventional electronic technology have been cost prohibitive; therefore associative processors have not been realized. Instead, software methods that emul...
متن کاملOptical content-addressable parallel processor for high-speed database processing.
We extend the concept of optical content-addressable parallel processing [Appl. Opt. 31, 3241 (1992)] to a novel architecture designed specifically for the parallel and high-speed implementation of database operations called optical content-addressable parallel processor for relational database processing (OCAPPRP). An OCAPPRP combines a parallel model of computation, associative processing, wi...

متن کاملDesign of an Optical Content-Addressable Parallel Processor with Applications to Fast Searching and Information Retrieval
Associative processing based on content-addressable memories has been argued to be the natural solution for non-numerical information processing applications. Unfortunately, the implementation requirements of these architectures using conventional electronic technology have been very cost prohibitive, and therefore associative processors have not been realized. Optics has the capability over el...
متن کاملThe Design of an Optical Content-Addressable Parallel Processor for Expert Systems
The slow execution speed of current rule-based systems (RBSs) has restricted their application areas. To improve the speed of RBSs, various electronic multiprocessor systems as well as optical systems have been proposed. However, the electronic systems still su er in performance from the large amount of required time-consuming pattern matching and comparison operations at the core of RBSs. Whil...
