* From CISC to RISC to ZISC by S. Liebman on lsmarketing. com

In computer science, Zero Instruction Set Computer ( ZISC ) refers to a computer architecture based on pure pattern matching and absence of ( micro -) instructions in the classical sense.

ZISC is a technology based on ideas from artificial neural networks and massively hardwired parallel processing.

Practical uses of ZISC / CogniMem technology focus on pattern recognition, information retrieval ( data mining ), security and similar tasks.

The ZISC architecture alleviates the memory bottleneck by blending the pattern memory with the pattern learning and recognition logic.
