Liz, The 'results' and the 'everything' are the actual information state of the universe. There is NO separate storage of anything other than the current information state of the universe. The current information state of the universe is continually being computed by the computations.
No, it does NOT assume the existence of particles. In this theory particle properties are prior to the existence of elementary particles. They are the actual components which in valid groups MAKE UP particles. And particle properties themselves, like everything else, are just information sets. When valid sets of particle properties associate they create information states interpreted as particles. This is easy to see because individual particles interact and transform into other particles, but the particle properties themselves are CONSERVED. Particles are NOT conserved, but particle properties ARE conserved. Therefore it tis the particle properties, not the particles, that are the elemental components of reality. Have I answered your questions?
