>>1 First you have to design non- von Neumann hardware. All modern C Processing Units, are imperative virtual machines.
As a senior COBOL/Node.js developer i suggest rewriting your program into Von-Neumann design pattern called "The Adapter" which presents a functional interface to imperative code.

We should be liberated by the common assumptions people make when programming C. I propose a 999bit/byte system.
