Abstract
The algebraic model of Part II represents a somewhat radical approach to computation. In this approach, rather than take the classical theory based on the continuum as a given and constructing approximate numerical techniques from there, work is done toward constructing an alternative to the continuum theory that is built up from scratch in a discrete setting. The goal is to take each mathematical objects that is necessary in order to write down the classical electromagnetic theory and develop a corresponding discrete analog. The theory builds upon standard concepts in algebraic topology and is motivated by recent progress in noncommutative differential geometry.
