What is Carbon Free Compute?
Carbon Free Compute means much more than limiting the energy sources that
powers personal, bussnesss servers, AI, cloud computing and the internet
backbone communication to renewable energy.
Even if all that computation would have run on renewable energy, producing
the materials and equipments that generate that renewable energy consume vast
amount of carbon-based fuels and cause enormous pollution.
Achieving carbon-free computing require optimal computing systems.
The vast overhead operations that is inherent to current computing technology
must be effectivly eliminated to reducing it to the absolute physically-possible
minimal level. That goal is achievable with the technology we have developed.
This website is dedicates to a complete new model of computation as well as
new semiconductor architecture that can achieve just that.
The entire concept of computation must be transformed with new theories of
information and knowledge.
The technologies we aim to bring to market are based on new theories of
control systems, parallelism, energetic optimality and a new linguistic-based
architecture of knowledge and computing.
The new technology replaces the CPU (The Turing Machine and Von-Newman
based concepts) as well as Neural Networks based AI concepts with a unified
linguistic silicon-engine architecture that effectively eliminates the software
concept itself, replacing it with a computational language that is literally
understood by the silicon engine itself.
Eliminating the CPU centrality in computers with the need to copy CPU
instructions from memory to a processing unit is enabled by the replacement of
the current arithmetic Turing Machine computational-function-based model of
computation with a new linguistic-based model of computation and a semiconductor
architecture that is inherently parallel and energetically optimal.
The similarities between the new technologies to current technologies are
few but consequential. The functionality and general Programmability of
CPU-based systems is preserved albeit with a speed increase by a factor of
hundreds if not thousands. (Big-O of 1 is at the engine core) and a comparable
level of energy consumption reduction (eliminating for example the need for
Dark-Silicon and making it possible to use existing Dark-Silicon for
parallelism).
General Programability is provided by more sophisticated and capable
scripting languages that can empower programmers by removing the limits and
complexities imposed by current operating systems and compilers. Most important,
existing semiconductor design and manufacturing methods (with current PDK's) can
be used to implement the new devices making the enormous investment that is
being made in the semiconductor industry more consequential and sensible in
relation to climate change and the growing (perhaps exponential) demand for
computational power and capacity.
The Framework Magazine is the crowd funding and publishing core of the
effort to announce and disseminate new knowledge theory concepts, as well as
bring to market computing and semiconductor technologies that reset Moore's Law
to where it was at its beginning and shift control over information and
knowledge from the computing industry to the users hands.
Framework and Views "Nonware" are based on new theories of information and
knoladge, and the technologies we aim to bring to market are based on new
theories of control systems, parallelism, energetic optimality and language as
an architecture of knoladge.
The new technology replaces the CPU and Neural Networks with a unified
linguistic architecture silicon engine that effectively eliminates software by
replacing it with a language that is literally understood by the silicon engine

The advantages in eliminating the operating systems are significant:
- a. Maximum level of security as the built-in hardware-based firmware-level security applies to all programs and interfaces.
- b. User and programmatic control over root memory and remote control that operating systems have no access to.
- c. Eliminating user interface delays such as typing and display hang up or slow database queries by dedicating hardware resources to the application in focus.
- d. The ability to run existing operating systems for transition and backward compatible in sandbox mode protected from viruses.
- e. Virtually instant booting as the operating system load time is eliminated.
- f. Real time control over hardware and security settings with easy to use programmatic and user interface.
- g. User interactive real time control over security and privacy settings including remote access and data sharing.
- h. Better programming control over firmware level hardware management such as applying parallelism on multi-core systems.
- i. Saving resulting from minimizing hardware requirements for RAM, Hard drive space.
- j. Firmware Application Programming Interface (FAPI) for VARS (Value Added Resellers) and OEM (Original Equipment manufacturers)
allow added functionality such as access control, sharing, block chain. IOT, P to P and IP to IP communication.
- k. Faster operations.
- l. Energy savings.
The Views OS-Free (OSF) Firmware for Personal and Mobile Computing.
A. What is OS-Free (OSF) Firmware Personal and Mobile Computing? Go to Top of page
Views OS-Free Firmware Computing is a computing architecture that provides
personal, mobile and business platforms residing in the ROM (Read Only Memory) BIOS chips.
It provides hardware security, access and control with GUI and API capabilities beyond
what current operating systems and applications can do on a PC, servers, mobile devices or other form factors.
An example of what Views OSF Firmware can do is to manage
unknown files of any type and size in a document management
system, making it a modular part of a mixed-type document.
Views documents can contain a mix of any type of data and media.
By modular we mean that the part can be modified, moved, copied, normalized,
or removed without affecting other parts in the same document.
Views is designed to provide a secure ergonomic, integrated and unified
WYSIWYG experience presenting the user with a container-based document system that can
contain any type of data and media. Documents are transparently maintained in a
modular system that treats the document's humanly recognizable parts such as sentences, as
independent modules that can be shared, normalized, associated, categorized, and modified under
version control without affecting other components.
Views transparently organizes documents as searchable extensions of human memory which
relies on the user's own contextual and cognitive association tags for transparent
indexing enabling user categorization-aware (relational) searching. Tags are embedded
at user recognizable elemental level.
The documents and their parts are normalized, (as in a relational database) to form a
relational real-time interactive information network with real-time (Big-O of one)
transparent indexing, unlimited undo and recall, and version tracking and control.
A server web-based version of this document system makes it possible to use Views
as a two way browser simplifying and lowering cost associated with current web standards.
Such web-based system can also provide back compatibility server functionality with HTML
DOM-based browsers to provide transparent continuity. Views can be used as a browser
with current standards by providing compatibility with the DOM, HTML, CSS and JS.
Views transforms documents and data into searchable cross
referenced knowledge.
Views provides familiar functionality such as word
processing, spreadsheets and database management in a unified
document system that can be programmed with an API and expanded
into an expert system with capabilities ranging from a personal
helper with automated alerts to an enterprise level business
management system.
Views is its own web browser changing the current Web
model into a two way symmetrical document based network and
adding peer to peer web capabilities with transparent network
functionality to every PC.
Views is also its own mail management system with email
capabilities that apply to any user selection with an email
transparent server that provides an independent store and
forward email server. It cancels the dependency on external
servers and makes it possible to exchange email directly with any
device connected to the web.
Being firmware-based, Views Firmware sets a level of security and
privacy that RAM-based operating systems and applications can never match.
The result is a vast improvement in efficiency, speed, and
functionality as well as savings in energy, upgrade cost, time,
memory usage and user efforts.
Who is it for?
Views OSF Firmware is for Current individual PC and server users as
well as corporations that can use the product off the shelve or
port their applications with our help into firmware to obtain
significant savings and security improvements.
What about legacy operating system such as Windows and Linux?
Windows and Linux will be able to continue to run in a virtual mode
"sandbox" under better control and with improved security.
