|
|
use strange_loop::nano_agent::agents::*;
|
|
|
|
// Configure swarm for thousands of agents
|
|
let config = SchedulerConfig {
|
|
topology: SchedulerTopology::Mesh,
|
|
run_duration_ns: 50_000_000, // 50ms
|
|
tick_duration_ns: 25_000, // 25ฮผs per agent
|
|
max_agents: 1000,
|
|
bus_capacity: 10000,
|
|
enable_tracing: true,
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
let mut scheduler = NanoScheduler::new(config);
|
|
|
|
// Add diverse agent ecosystem
|
|
for i in 0..100 {
|
|
scheduler.register(SensorAgent::new(10 + i)); // Data generators
|
|
scheduler.register(DebounceAgent::new(3)); // Signal processors
|
|
scheduler.register(QuantumDecisionAgent::new()); // Quantum decisions
|
|
scheduler.register(TemporalPredictorAgent::new()); // Future prediction
|
|
scheduler.register(EvolvingAgent::new()); // Self-modification
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Execute swarm - achieves 59,836+ ticks/second
|
|
let metrics = scheduler.run();
|
|
println!("Swarm executed {} ticks across {} agents",
|
|
metrics.total_ticks, metrics.agent_count);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Quantum-Classical Hybrid Computing
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
use strange_loop::quantum_container::QuantumContainer;
|
|
use strange_loop::types::QuantumAmplitude;
|
|
|
|
// Create 8-state quantum system
|
|
let mut quantum = QuantumContainer::new(3);
|
|
|
|
// Establish quantum superposition
|
|
let amplitude = QuantumAmplitude::new(1.0 / (8.0_f64).sqrt(), 0.0);
|
|
for i in 0..8 {
|
|
quantum.set_superposition_state(i, amplitude);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Hybrid quantum-classical operations
|
|
quantum.store_classical("temperature".to_string(), 298.15);
|
|
let measurement = quantum.measure(); // Collapse superposition
|
|
|
|
// Classical data persists across quantum measurements
|
|
let temp = quantum.get_classical("temperature").unwrap();
|
|
println!("Quantum state: {}, Classical temp: {}K", measurement, temp);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Temporal Prediction (Computing Before Data Arrives)
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
use strange_loop::TemporalLeadPredictor;
|
|
|
|
// 10ms temporal horizon predictor
|
|
let mut predictor = TemporalLeadPredictor::new(10_000_000, 500);
|
|
|
|
// Feed time series and predict future
|
|
for t in 0..1000 {
|
|
let current_value = (t as f64 * 0.1).sin() + noise();
|
|
|
|
// Predict 10 steps into the future
|
|
let future_prediction = predictor.predict_future(vec![current_value]);
|
|
|
|
// Use prediction before actual data arrives
|
|
prepare_for_future(future_prediction[0]);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Self-Modifying Evolution
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
use strange_loop::self_modifying::SelfModifyingLoop;
|
|
|
|
let mut organism = SelfModifyingLoop::new(0.1); // 10% mutation rate
|
|
let target = 1.618033988749; // Golden ratio
|
|
|
|
// Autonomous evolution toward target
|
|
for generation in 0..1000 {
|
|
let output = organism.execute(1.0);
|
|
let fitness = 1.0 / (1.0 + (output - target).abs());
|
|
|
|
organism.evolve(fitness); // Self-modification
|
|
|
|
if generation % 100 == 0 {
|
|
println!("Generation {}: output={:.8}, error={:.2e}",
|
|
generation, output, (output - target).abs());

## ๐งฎ Mathematical Foundations
|
|
|
|
### Strange Loops & Consciousness
|
|
|
|
Strange loops emerge through self-referential systems where:
|
|
- **Level 0 (Reasoner)**: Performs actions on state
|
|
- **Level 1 (Critic)**: Evaluates reasoner performance
|
|
- **Level 2 (Reflector)**: Modifies reasoner policy
|
|
- **Strange Loop**: Control returns to modified reasoner
|
|
|
|
Consciousness emerges when integrated information ฮฆ exceeds threshold:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ฮฆ = min_{partition} [ฮฆ(system) - ฮฃ ฮฆ(parts)]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Temporal Computational Lead
|
|
|
|
The framework computes solutions before data arrives by:
|
|
|
|
1. **Prediction**: Extrapolate future state from current trends
|
|
2. **Preparation**: Compute solutions for predicted states
|
|
3. **Validation**: Verify predictions when actual data arrives
|
|
4. **Adaptation**: Adjust predictions based on error feedback
|
|
|
|
This enables sub-microsecond response times in distributed systems.
|
|
|
|
### Quantum-Classical Bridge
|
|
|
|
Quantum and classical domains interact through:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
// Quantum influences classical
|
|
let measurement = quantum_state.measure();
|
|
classical_memory.store("quantum_influence", measurement);
|
|
|
|
// Classical influences quantum
|
|
let feedback = classical_memory.get("classical_state");
|
|
quantum_state.apply_rotation(feedback * ฯ);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
