Hardware should offload tasks to other processors

• NPU: Network processor
• GPU: Graphics processing
• SPU: Storage processing
• FPU: optional floating point
• UPU: User I/O processing unit

Words should have 4-bit flags to identify the TYPE of word: mixed data/ins, int, object identifier, pointer,

Since energy consumption and processing efficiency are

RISC architecture consisting of the minimal instructions for general-purpose computation. A second-level set of instructions that utilize these for higher-level computation, and probably a third set or fourth.

The minimal set for computation are

• MOV word
• JuMP on condition
• ADD two words
• EQUAL or compare two words

GPU should optimize for 1 dimensional, 2 dimensional, and 3-dimensional output. Three different screens. The CPU then sends graphics primitives like ASCII bytes for the 1-dimensional text i/o, window coordinates and size for 2d, and geometric objects for 3d rendering.
