Abstract

There is a great variety of unconventional computing approaches trying to compete with and even surpass the classical computers in providing a solution to high complexity problems. Unconventional computation functionality has been verified and implemented successfully on chemical reactions, paving the way to the development of Chemical Computers. This functionality is investigated here, aiming to transfer chemical reaction's working principle on a circuit capable of processing information, involving the interaction of propagating voltage signals in a geometrically constrained electrical medium. In this work such a circuit has been developed utilizing Memristor-Resistor-Capacitor (MemRC) oscillators and their computing capabilities have been verified by demonstrating multiple Boolean logic calculations in the same medium. More specifically, a variety of Boolean gates is implemented in a versatile topology of oscillating nodes, exploiting the same electrical medium geometry.

基于忆阻器振荡器的非常规计算的多功能空间扩展逻辑门

有各种各样的非常规计算方法试图与经典计算机竞争，甚至超越经典计算机，为高复杂性问题提供解决方案。非常规计算功能在化学反应上得到了验证和成功实现，为化学计算机的发展铺平了道路。本文研究了这一功能，旨在将化学反应的工作原理转移到能够处理信息的电路上，涉及在几何约束的电介质中传播电压信号的相互作用。在这项工作中，利用忆阻器-电阻-电容(MemRC)振荡器开发了这样的电路，并通过在同一介质中演示多个布尔逻辑计算来验证其计算能力。更具体地说，利用相同的电介质几何结构，在振荡节点的通用拓扑中实现了各种布尔门。
