ABSTRACT:
An optical computing system includes an input device, a converter and an optical computing device. The input device generates first light beams along selected ones of a first plurality of light transmitting paths. Each of the first light beams is representative of a digit of a number. The converter converts the first light beams into second light beams selected among a second plurality of light transmitting paths. Each of the second light beams is representative of the residue of the number modulo a given modulus among a plurality of mutually prime moduli. The converter generates, for each number, an ordered group of second light beams corresponding to an ordered group of residues modulo each of the mutually prime moduli. The optical computing device is coupled to receive the orderd group of second light beams from the converter for performing residue arithmetic operations.
