Idea: Virtual Neural Net Hardware

In this conversation on slashdot I discuss the possibility of simulating asynchronous neuron interactions in virtual hardware. Specifically I conjecture that the DBus architecture is the right model to attach asynchronous networks to. Hind sight being 20/20 I wish I had developed a prototype of this concept before blurting out the idea on Slashdot. Since the deed is done. I wonder how much interest there is on the internet for developing technology like this. I also wonder if I will play any meaningful part in its development.

I do have quite a few other technologies after my attention. It would be nice if I could use my time to investigate those ideas instead of the ones I get paid for.
