Le Centre européen de compétence en intelligence artificielle d'IBM, à Montpellier travaille sur différents projets neuronaux. La mémoire à hologrammes numériques Chaos fractal, mise au point par Jean-Claude Perez met en œuvre deux innovations : la grande densité et l'associativité des mémoires holographiques, d'une part, et le calcul fractal, d'autre part, qui rend compte de la complexité et des nouveaux types de comportements émergeant de tels réseaux.

Holographic memory offers the possibility of storing 1 terabyte(TB) of data in a sugar-cube-sized crystal. A terabyte of data equals 1, 000 gigabytes, 1 million megabytes or 1 trillion bytes. Data from more than 1, 000 CDs could fit on a holographic memory system. Most computer hard drives only hold 10 to 40 GB of data, a small fraction of what a holographic memory system might hold. 4, record 5, English, - holographic%20memory
