Abstract
A network of networks system and method includes a neuron having processing capabilities; a first level module including a network of a plurality of interconnected neurons, the first level module also having processing capabilities; and a second level module including a network of interconnected networks or interconnected neurons, the second level module also having processing capabilities; wherein the first and second level modules are interconnected through neuron to neuron connections such that simultaneous processing can be carried out at by the neuron and by the first and second level modules. The system and method also includes means for forming a boundary between a first module having a first memory state and a second module having a second memory state such that the module comprising the boundary attains a third memory state distinct from the first and second memory states.
