Utilizing the output of the Automaton Builder (SQXL) is composed of two arrays that configure the language processor. It is capable of implementing complex handshaking and dynamic data processing. The processor can be implemented via software or hardware. A DLL is available simplifying the software approach and schematics for the hardware. When employing SQXL's learning elements, it is capable implementing adaptive modelling (trueAI).

Language processing model

• Adaptive process/language automaton. As part of the compilations, all possible backtracking sequences are pre-computed and merged with application specific operations. Executable as a DLL or for greater performance via a hardware implementation.
• Search: less than 1 µsec to retrieve a match out of 64 billion. (2 µsec learn time per item)
• Sorting: linear sort time of up to 64 billion items.

• Calpont's Database Platform was specifically designed to meet the high performance needs of large distributed access database applications. Calpont's technical foundation was in part based on algorithms that enable the efficient insertion and selection of very large amounts of weakly correlated data in compact arrays of memory. The resulting performance necessitated the creation of other speed matching components leading to such solutions as the hardware SQL engine.

• Agere was formed in 1997 with an 8 million dollar investment and a limited license to the ETAC patent. More Agere’s product line was based on an updated version of the original ETAC algorithms.
  
  Ten months later a second round was contemplated with the inside investors offering a 75 million dollar valuation. With an agreement to sell the remainder of the license to Agere for 2 million dollars, the inside investors agreed to raise their valuation to 150 million.
  
  By that time, 65 million in unsolicited investment offers were received and bids from two companies for approximately half a billion each. Fourteen months from its founding Agere was sold to Lucent for 440 million dollars. It was later understood that 1 billion had been set aside by one of the bidders for the purchase of Agere.

• Netrake Corp., Co-founder and investor - Netrake was formed and funded at about the time Agere was sold. It utilized the Agere chip set as well as another set of memory performance algorithms to address recognition of the contents of high-speed network traffic. Netrake's customers including NTT, SBC, and Level3, were attracted by its ability to provide network integrity and service differentiation through content awareness.
