Content Addressable Routing
A 'renderer' that interprets the memory location as some bitstream which turns it into an expectation of some type of shape for the bits at location.
OS Built on virtual machine over DHT-like system / Content Addressable Memory / Heck, throw in computations on there too, why compute things that have already been computed?
Basically Xanadu.
- Rygian 3y agoHow do Content-Addressable documents work for content that is meant to be edited (ie. with changing content, versioning, …) or for content that is meant to include live data?
- ElectricalUnion 3y agoBesides some canonical, immutable checkpoints directly in a DHT, CRDTs could store the intermediate mutated state for you. Probably on a side "testnet".
- pyinstallwoes 3y agoI like how Xanadu solved this. Given any thing exists as a unique hash at a high level you get linked hashes but the way Xanadu approached the url structure to map to a bitstream is genius.
- vacuity 3y agoWhat do you mean by the computations part? > Heck, throw in computations on there too, why compute things that have already been computed?
- pyinstallwoes 3y agoAny result of a function has a return address in the globally accessible namespace distributed in a manner like DHT. All data / code grow into a permanently distributed addressable routable form. In as much as the identity of the object having the means to be provided for by a deterministic route; which is not finite in size (allows growth for addressing for example md5/sha-256/sha-512 which would be part of the base routing protocol to access coordinates in such a system).
