Natural computing is the computational version of natural phenomena. In this chapter, natural computing principles are applied to perform Boolean function. Encoding of natural phenomena is the key aspect of molecular electronics. To apply the encoding, the intermediate data structure called the logic primitives, is needed. Intermediate structure reflects the property of phenomenon, from one side, and computational properties of Boolean functions, from another side. In this chapter, the techniques for interpretation the following physical and chemical phenomena using logic primitives are introduced Quantum dot phenomenon.Complementary biomolecular phenomena.
Membrane computing
Published in International Journal of Parallel, Emergent and Distributed Systems, 2021
Membrane computing, initiated by Prof. Păun [1] in 1998 as a branch of natural computing, is a vigorous computational paradigm motivated by the structure and functioning of the living cells, and from the ways the cells cooperate in populations like tissues, organs, colonies, including neural cells, hence also the brain [2, 3]. The computational models are called either membrane systems or P systems. In the past 20 years, a lot of theoretical results and real-life applications have been achieved in a broad range of topics [4, 5] like computing power, computing efficiency, robots controllers, modelling ecosystems and implementation [6–9]. What is more important, membrane computing community has succeeded to achieve a set of landmarking successes: the establishment of International Membrane Computing Society (IMCS), the organisation of four regular conference/workshop events, namely ECMC, ACMC, BWMC, and CWMC, and the gestation and birth of two periodic publications, Journal of Membrane Computing (JMC) and IMCS Bulletin.
