(Just to be clear, in case anyone is unsure - Church and Turing were
very interested in the theory of what could be computed, rather than how
to compute it, and their models along with all other models come up with
the same set of computable functions.  Different models, including
quantum computing, can all solve the same problems - they just do it in
different ways, and can have different efficiencies in terms of time and
size.)

You are going to have to give some links, references or details here.
There are people here who have heard of some pretty unusual languages,
but no one has heard of everything!

The two big programming models that are fashionable these days are
quantum computing and neural networks.

Every now and again I also hear about some new chip designed around the
model of a sea of simple computing units that each do a small part of
the overall work.  This is different from cellular automata networks
(where each cell has the same program and configuration) and neural
networks (where each cell has the same program but different
configuration, or connections and weights).
