What is the definition of a computon?[edit]

I read this article and the PDF link it refers to, but I don't see any numeric definition of a computon as a unit. The general discussion is nice, but a precise definition should be here if somebody can find it. For example, a watt can be described generally as a unit that measures the time rate of energy use or production, but is precisely defined as one joule per second.

I looked at it too, there's no definition, only a sequence of trivialities. We should simply delete this reference. MvH (talk) 22:31, 24 May 2015 (UTC)MvH[reply]

honestly it looks to me like HP advertising. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.209.66.124 (talk) 04:02, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
