A deep dive into Sliding Window Token Machines, a novel CPU design that uses 8/9-bit tokens indexed through a sliding window of 32-bit pointers to address large memory spaces with minimal instruction width. The article covers the dual Red/Blue memory model, threaded code execution mechanics, compilation strategies including table overrun/under-run handling, literal factoring via the pointer table, FPGA scalability from a single BRAM up to large designs, and 16-bit token variants. An ARM Cortex-M3 inner interpreter implementation in FASMARM assembly is included as a practical reference.
