Dear Edgar, I would agree with your idea here if you made one change: replace the single abstract computing space for all of space-time and replace it with an abstract computing space for each point of space-time. The *one* computation becomes an *infinite number* of disjoint computations. There are also an infinite number of different computations possible for each point for space time! Consider programs that are written in disjoint languages, i.e. that have no trivial translation between them or a common compiler. How many different computations can generate a simulation of the same physical system? More than one!
This can be proven, I think, by rewriting A.A. Markov's diffeomorphism theorem into a weaker form. Something like: There does not exist a general algorithm that can decide in finite time whether or not a smooth diffeomorphism exists between any pair of 4-manifolds. OTOH, there do exist finite approximations of computations of clocks that can be defined in finite hypervolumes of space-time. This gives us the illusion of a present moment that is percievable at each point of space-time, but it is not one that can be arbitrarily extended to cover all of the manifold. Computation thus cannot be extendible over the entire manifold and thus there cannot be a global present moment that can be "computed". The point is that GR requires an infinite number of infinitesimal space-times that are "patched together" into a space-time manifold in order to make its predictions (including the equivalence principle). Since a physical clock cannot be defined *in* a infinitesimal space-time hypervolume (specifically the local neighborhood or "ball" of every point in the space-time manifold), there is no way of globally ordering the "present moments" that would be said to exist at each point.
