ABSTRACT:
Fractal memory systems and methods include a fractal tree that includes one or more fractal trunks. One or more object circuits are associated with the fractal tree. The object circuit(s) can be configured from a plurality of nanotechnology-based components to provide a scalable distributed computing architecture for fractal computing. Additionally, a plurality of router circuits is associated with the fractal tree, wherein one or more fractal addresses output from a recognition circuit can be provided at a fractal trunk by the router circuits.
