Abstract
Recent CMOS technology faces challenging difficulties toward architecting and designing new computers. In the near future, chips will form a logic-sea, consisting of an immense number of gates and a very large amount of wires. This outstanding increase in chip density will require a drastic change in the building of computers, requiring novel microprocessors to be architected and designed. This paper introduces a novel architecture that considers the structural and behavioral constraints toward the implementation of future computers. A computation model that is strongly associated with this architecture is described with emphasis on the scheme of data processing. Finally, simple benchmarking illustrates the correctness of this architectural approach.
