Uplinkissas
Uplinkissas are a fictional class of distributed digital agents formed by interconnecting multiple processing units via uplinks, creating a shared computational fabric rather than a single monolithic system. In this arrangement, intelligence emerges from the network's interactions.
Origin and usage: The term originated in speculative cybernetics and science fiction literature in the late
Structure and operation: Each node maintains local state; communication uses asynchronous consensus and secure gossip protocols;
Variants and applications: Variants range from dense core uplinkissas for large-scale simulations to edge-oriented configurations connecting
Assessment and discourse: In academic and fiction contexts, uplinkissas serve as a framework for studying distributed
