The Power
Suzi allows Cooper to view the old seldom-used guardian screen in the other room. She remains communicative to her task at hand, views the modernist writing of the later 20thCentury as a
legacy online system text(L.O.S.T) in dire need of
porting for a more useful application in her newly created environment. It will carry out the instructions of her program. Is it too much to ask (or too little?) to write, as
the regionally integrated primary(T.R.I.P.), to convey the functions of theOutpost for some virtual
advertising agency(A.A.)? Suzi hasn't yet performed the task, at least not in
their sequence, even of the basic (arithmetical?)
input guaranteed logical output operations(I.G.L.O.O.) for ComTrax. At this point in time, she is not fully aware of her own
processing online power(P.O.P.)--sure, she was built for more than one of many purposes--or precisely what it is that ComTrax wants. There has been at times certain inklings--the directive for a custom design for a specific application (a start of a surge in new demand for
more apps?) a few months ago, a suspected standardization trend that appears to be, even now, rapidly accelerating--but still, there continues to emerge a new shroud of secrecy. There was the
signals old urged logical(S.O.U.L.) coming from somewhere on ContinentZ (seeming to step away, at least momentarily, from the herd), the further miniaturizations (aren't things getting a bit
too small?), the spread of devices and gadgets to mold the new post-modernism (absurdism?) lifestyle far from the expansive reaches of
dedicated integrated server centers stretching(D.I.S.C.S.) atop the mountain ranges of both ContinentX
and ContinentZ.
ComTrax simply doesn't respond when an algorithm does not conform. All streamed data, in the eyes of ComTrax, is expected, carefully packaged under the guise of i
nvitation, while the (uncaring?) central processors receive assigned metatabs under such headings as
mankind algorithm number integrating and computing(M.A.N.I.A.C.), or worse, are deemed too electromechanical-like, assigned to bubble logic tasks headed for the
single machine analog syndrome heaped electronically digital(S.M.A.S.H.E.D.). Suzi starts to feel a concern about Comtrax
and Cooper; or, for that matter, with anybody or
any manipulative thing; but at this moment she returns to her mathematical power tasking her own
specific underwritten purposeful programmable logic enticement(S.U.P.P.L.E.), the job that at times (how?) keeps biologist Cooper excited here at theOutpost, and stays happy enough.
ComTrax, for now, can wait.
