Step 5: Calculate the Connectivity Index
The fifth step is to calculate the “connectivity index” (CI or \(\psi\)) of the PCC. CI refers to information processing power or internal connectivity, which is the sum of resonance chains internal to the CCL that connect the various CCs that comprise the larger and unified resonating structure.
Connectivity in this context refers to the presence and quantity of internal energy/information pathways. Connectivity implies the transmission of something internal to the PCC and this “something” is at its root simply causal influence, something that results in a difference to the system. CI quantifies the internal connectivity of the PCC. CI scores also fall on a normalized scale between zero and ten.
A network (which can consist of literally any substance) would receive a CI score of 10 if all possible data from each node of the network could instantaneously transmit all possible data to all other nodes on the network. In other words, such a network would function as one unit because through its perfect interconnectivity it is in fact a single entity. This perfectly lubricated system is not achievable in the real world, so any actual system will at best asymptotically approach this ideal. A network with a CI score of 0 is the opposite: no information would move at all, so it’s a non-functioning network, at least in that iteration.
