The next generation Internet
The new Autosophy Information
Theory may increase Internet throughput by orders of magnitude, using
universally compatible data formats, combined with near absolute reliability and
security. It can solve the Quality of Service (QoS) problems for mixed
multimedia via the packet switching Internet.
The Internet only started a generation ago and already shown definite signs of strain. Access and search times are getting slower, downloading speed is leveling off, security is getting very annoying, while Internet usage is skyrocketing. There is simply not enough bandwidth for wireless networks, satellites, and cellular telephones. The basic problems can be traced back to the outdated Shannon Information Theory, which was used to design today’s Internet. Redesigning the Internet, using the newer Autosophy Information Theory, promises orders of magnitude improvements and solutions to most of today’s communication problems. A universal 64bit data format will remain compatible with any legacy data format by using software patches or chipsets to provide a gradual shift from the current Internet to the future Internet. The new communications methods are hardware-independent and may never become incompatible with any file formats or media. This promises a quantum leap forward for all communications methods and media. It may eventually replace the programmed data processing computer with self-learning, brain-like, no-programming Autosopher, which may be communicating with us using grammatical speech.
Keywords: Autosophy Information Theory,

Self-organizing Databases, Failure-proof Mass Memories.
Applications: This research may lead to a next generation Internet including worldwide compatible self-learning archives, using failure proof memories, and communicating with us using grammatical speech. This may lead eventually to robots with true Artificial Intelligence and Machine Consciousness.
