The Compute ICE-AGE: Invariant Compute Envelope under Addressable Graph Evolution

arXiv:2602.16736v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper presents empirical results from a production-grade C++ implementation of a deterministic semantic state substrate operating under bounded local state evolution. The system was realized as a CPU-resident persistent semantic graph engine designed to preserve semantic continuity structurally rather than repeatedly reconstructing it through probabilistic inference. Contemporary inference-driven AI systems repeatedly recompute seman
