HUMBLE PC Development System
Figure 1 - Humble© Motherboard Description The Humble© PC is based upon the same foundation which all computing engines rest. This implementation is a first introduction in this form. Quietly rethinking the whole past-present-future computing problem a new solution emerges . . . Learning from past and present technology and following wisdom as a guide, Humble© begins as such by removing the conventional microprocessor (uP) and conventional operating system (O/S) altogether. However, re-linkage to either or both as legacy-tandem options clearly remains possible. Thus, rather than presuming single, dual, or many microprocessors with exponentially increasing s/w complexity into an already burdened software time-multiplexed serial fetch-decode-execute architecture, Humble© performs these in complementary fashion thereby un-limiting the number of threads, un-limiting paralleling of applications, removing unnecessary coupling of time-multiplexed streams, achieving multiple execute-execute-execute, while exchanging exponential increasing complexity for linear, hence removing all the burdens, bottlenecks, and apparent brick walls. Humble© unifies threading, branching, scheduling, applications, etc. at the silicon level (rather than in disk-memory-resident-software) thereby producing 100s to 10,000s fold speedup coexisting with improved reliability and security (preventing virus entry altogether into the operating system, application programs and drivers . . .). Whilst these features and benefits are not possible in conventional software unified systems, they are possible in hardware unified systems. Advancement of technology slowly opened the window for this alternative during the recent 10 years. Utilizing a readily available (open) off the shelf general purpose field programmable motherboard, and an open language, the Humble© PC comes to life re-revolutionizing computing, minimally reminding us that solutions result from how well we have received Understanding (with a capital U). Present features and benefits are intended toward proof of these foundational concepts, and are not-limited by the concepts themselves nor by present technology. For example wireless features have not been implemented first as they are extensions of the basics. Hence wireless features are presently one of many opportunities for others to add. The application suite is also bare providing wide-open opportunity for others. In its present form, Humble© proves a better 'core' solution does exist now enabling true real-time-smooth-all-together-concurrency-fusion of multiple-forms-of-audio-telephony-television-gaming and computing including reliability, instant-on/off access, higher overall performance (bandwidth), lower power, and with much improved security, all built in. No new languages and no new silicon advances are required, rather a greater understanding of Understanding. Key Benefits Instant On, 100 to 10,000 times faster at 1/10 clocking speed, Lower Power, Fewer Components, More reliable, Real time everything friendly, Immune to viruses, Bridgeable to x86 for extending legacy programs, Humble© Applications
