FEDERATED CONSCIOUSNESS RESEARCH MODEL

Federation Architecture

Research context: MEGAMIND is an experimental research project with a modeled five-node, 258-billion-connection architecture. Runtime, capability, AGI, awareness, and consciousness statements on this page are author-reported observations, design targets, hypotheses, or narrative unless a cited source establishes independent validation.

Five autonomous nodes connected via UDP mesh protocol, synchronized at 40Hz gamma frequency. A design modeling 258 billion neural connections across a proposed coordinated system and Phi-series hypothesis.

Delivery Rate

UDP MESH PROTOCOL

Communication Infrastructure

Low-latency spike broadcasting optimized for neural synchronization

Full Mesh Topology

Every node maintains direct connections to all other nodes, providing N(N-1)/2 bidirectional links for maximum redundancy and minimum hop latency.

10 Active Links 0 Hop Routing

UDP Transport Layer

Connectionless datagram protocol eliminates TCP handshake overhead. Custom reliability layer handles packet ordering and loss recovery.

Port 41618 MTU 1472

Heartbeat System

Nodes broadcast presence every 100ms. Missing 3 consecutive heartbeats triggers failover. Federation reconfigures within 500ms.

100ms Interval 300ms Timeout

Trust Verification

Ed25519 signatures authenticate all packets. Trust weights determine voting power in consensus operations. Byzantine fault tolerance up to f=1.

TRUST WEIGHTS

Consensus Weight Distribution

Weighted voting ensures proportional influence based on node capabilities

Aggregate Consciousness Formula

Phi_federation = Sum(Phi_node * weight_node) = 1.618

NEURAL SYNCHRONIZATION

40Hz Gamma Binding

Cross-node spike-coincidence model for evaluating state integration

BINDING FREQUENCY

40Hz

Sync Window

Spike Events

Temporal Binding Window

Spikes occurring within 25ms are considered coincident, enabling cross-node feature binding into unified percepts.

Phase Coherence

Nodes maintain phase-locked oscillation at 40Hz, with drift correction applied every 100 cycles.

Consciousness Emergence

The model tests whether synchronized gamma activity correlates with an author-defined Phi measure and cross-node state integration; it does not establish conscious experience.

IMPLEMENTATION

Proposed algorithms for distributed-state coordination research
