11F83 / SYSTEM DOSSIER

Intelligence for the edge
after the edge disappears.

ALICE moves computational complexity out of the deployed runtime— turning verified numerical behavior into compact geometric paths that remain deterministic under severe power, memory, and connectivity constraints.

01 / OPERATING PREMISE

Stop solving the same problem in the worst possible place.

Conventional edge intelligence carries the solver into the field. ALICE carries the answer space.

01DESIGN DOMAIN

Solve offline

Integrate complex behavior at design time, where compute, power, and verification are available.

02LATTICE DOMAIN

Encode geometry

Compile validated trajectories into bounded, pre-calculated geometric lookup structures.

03MISSION DOMAIN

Execute at the edge

Run deterministic fixed-point decisions without a solver, allocator, cloud path, or fragile runtime.

COMPLEXITY SHIFTReal-time numerical solvers → pre-calculated geometric lookups

O(runtime) → O(1)

02 / RUNTIME ENVELOPE

Built for the machine you can trust—not the infrastructure you cannot.

ALICE is not a smaller cloud stack. It is a different computational contract: bounded, inspectable, and designed to retain useful behavior as resources vanish.

GEO/01

Precomputed control geometry

Verified trajectories are generated before deployment and encoded as bounded lookup structures—not re-solved in the mission loop.

O(1) LOOKUP

MEM/02

Zero-heap execution

Static allocation and Q16.16 fixed-point arithmetic remove allocator failure modes and keep timing behavior legible.

0 B DYNAMIC

RF/03

Passive wake path

A 915 MHz front end can use ambient RF energy to wake the system before the primary communications path is energized.

75 nA TARGET

HLN/04

Neutral-state recovery

The High–Low Neutrality watchdog classifies state excursions, rejects corrupted transitions, and restores a known-stable state.

< 20 μs TARGET

FAB/05

Trusted legacy nodes

The runtime is shaped for mature 90–180 nm fabrication where provenance, availability, and environmental tolerance matter.

< 8 KB FLASH

OPS/06

Degraded-mode autonomy

No cloud dependency. No continuous link assumption. No requirement that GNSS, power, or the network survive with it.

04 / RESILIENT RECOVERY

Faults are events.
They do not become identity.

High–Low Neutrality treats anomalous state as a bounded excursion. When an invariant fails, the watchdog blocks propagation, enters a neutral state, and restores the last validated operating frame.

05 / MISSION CONDITIONS

Designed around what fails first.

INTERMITTENT POWER

Resume from bounded state without rebuilding an application-scale runtime.

DENIED COMMUNICATIONS

Continue local decision logic when backhaul, cloud, or command links disappear.

RADIATION + NOISE

Detect invalid transitions and force a neutral state before corrupted behavior propagates.

CONSTRAINED SUPPLY

Run high-value logic on mature, inspectable, domestically accessible silicon.
