a low-complexity computer for off-grid and off-planet applications.

used as a control system for the SIMD processing units.
using some of the ideas behind APL and co-dfns, we can easily structure programs that take advantage of data-parallel micro-architecture.
each nomad unit holds a variable number of independent computers.
silicon-level actor model
software-defined IO

register memory only
treat slow main memory as storage
built to work with the data-access network architecture. functional units can be organically organized into task-optimal configurations.
