A process for the low temperature, non-incineration decontamination of contaminated materials, such as chemical weapon components containing residual quantities of chemical warfare agents. An input lookup key is divided into several strides including a current stride of S bits. When the sensor unit detects an anomalous ambient condition the sensor communicates with the base unit and provides data regarding the anomalous condition. A pair of sourcedrain terminals is formed over the channel layer, thereby producing a thin film transistor on the substrate. The information is preferably ATM transmitted, and all first processing units are connected to all second processing units using virtual path connections on the ATM layer.
