I've long envisioned a glue architecture around a scalable SmallTalk core. The ST bytecode can be run on various size compute cores from 8-bits to 64-bits. All the ST does is handle code flow. All compute is handed off to co-processors (Integer, floating-point, matrix, GPU, etc). The compute functions can be correspondingly scaled based on family design. The general goal is to allow thousands of cooperating compute processors with edge processors for communication.
Feels like I'm reading this classic, but with cryptography examples.<p><a href="https://www.tcl-lang.org/doc/scripting.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.tcl-lang.org/doc/scripting.html</a>
