Alternative computer architectures? (lemmy.ml)

So far, I've come across these three terms:

  • Princeton (John von Neumann) architecture
  • Harvard architecture
  • Modified Harvard architecture

Is that it? What about some of the other alternatives?

Would a quantum computer count as a finite state machine? If not, wouldn't it be an example of something different?

Tbh a little bit outside my wheelhouse but Lance Fortnow had a proof showing that all the implementations of quantum computing could be modelled using a Quantum Turing machine and are more complex forms of probabalistic automata. It's technically not, because a finite state machine can also be called a deterministic finite automata where a probabalistic automata is a Nondeterministic finite automata.

So no... But also mostly the same principle just with fuzzy logic.
