Titel (Englisch)
iBIT
Kurzbeschreibung (Deutsch)
IBIT is a joint research project within the Leading-Edge Cluster "Cool Silicon", which is sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research(BMBF). The project aims to replace cpu-cycles by introducing a non-cpu based computing model. This model is build on a novel concept of information and uses transformations instead of calculations for information processing. Thus allowing energy savings of up to 60%. The goals of IBIT are the development of this novel non-cpu based computing model and its application in different domains, which is researched in three subprojects.rnrnThe iBIT concept is based on the idea that the information of a specific element and its memory address are identical. The memory address of an element is defined by a specific code. As an example assume a table for storing names. As names are composed of letters and the alphabet counts 26 of them, any name can be described as a sequence of 5-bit codes. The letter 'A' is encoded as '00001', letter 'B' as '00010' and so on. Using this code the name 'NEUMANN' is translated to '01110 00101 10101 01101 00001 01110 01110 00000' which also is the memory address at which the information regarding the element identified by 'NEUMANN' is located.rnrnExisting computers use the cpu-centered von Neumann model, which answers user queries by generating the requested information every time it is needed. In contrast to this 'generate always' approach, iBIT proposes a 'generate once then access' way of information processing, meaning that information is generated once, stored and furthermore only accessed using the identity based memory transformation. This model replaces lots of the cpu-cycles necessary for calculation with memory system accesses and thus allows saving energy.rnrn
