Lightbulb Do any Diesels use Electric Injection Pumps vice Mechanical Units yet?

Do any Diesels use Electric Injection Pumps vice Mechanical Units yet?

I'm sure some Chip Circuity could fire off an Electric Fuel Pump or a combination of Electric Pumps, perhaps one per cylinder just as, if not more efficiently than a Mechanical IP. With the right Pump Injector Combination and 4 valves per cylinder the fuel could be atomized so finely and injected and exhausted very precisely.

The benefits would be finer computer controlled metering of combustion and exhaustion.
