Dominican engineer Luis Jose Quinones announced at the monthly conference of the Cooperation, Science and Technology Consultantship (Cocecit) that he has created a new chip, Power6, based on fractal theory, which could revolutionize digital equipment, considering that these would be cheaper than conventional chips, less complex and consume less energy.
The DBC 440 is based on the geometrical concept of fractals. He explained that fractals are visible in nature and pointed to the examples of flowers, a tree and even in humans. Speaking at the scientific conference Quinones said that once the chip is "purchased' by an international company, it could be used by the public. The DBC is in the patent process and could be used in computers, cameras and other digital equipment.
Quinones is an advisor to the National Energy Commission (CNE). The monthly conference is held in coordination with the Academy of Sciences of the Dominican Republic.
