Implementing Semantic Networks in Parallel Hardware
Psychology Press eBooks · 2014
The simulated computer must be similar enough to the brain so that it is reasonable to expect that the computational techniques that work well on it will also work well in the brain. It is probably not necessary, however, to mimic all the details of the neural hardware exactly in order to discover higher-level, software principles that are applicable to a wide range of highly parallel computers composed of many simple computing elements with rich hardware connectivity.
