A couple of general articles, somewhat speculative,  are available from
my publication list:
http://pages.bangor.ac.uk/~mas010/publicfull.htm



130.(with T. PORTER), `The intuitions of higher dimensional algebra for
the study of structured space', Revue de Synth?se, 124 (2003)  173-203.
` UWB Math. Preprint (pdf file) <pdffiles/paris-cogn9.pdf>.


136. (with T. Porter), `Category theory and higher dimensional algebra:
potential descriptive tools in neuroscience', Proceedings of the
International Conference on Theoretical Neurobiology, Delhi, February
2003, edited by Nandini Singh, National Brain Research Centre,
Conference Proceedings 1 (2003) 80-92. pdf <pdffiles/brown-porter03_05.pdf>

You should also look at the area of concurrency theory. Running many
computers is analogous to many dimensional time.

And do a web search on "higher dimensional algebra" with for example
physics, biology, ...
