The buss is like a news feed. One thing at a time. Everyone has to post their bit and everyone else has to wade (or wait) though all of it to get the parts they want.

Maybe you intend to say that the packet routing backbone of the internet is what is being emulated. Where multiple things fly around at once to only their intended destination. This is what the multi chip/core low power GPU based folks are doing.

I hope the MIT team check prior art before filing any patents….
