By D. Carmean, L. Ceze, G. Seelig, K. Stewart, K. Strauss, and M. Willsey
This paper attempts to address the problem of long-term storage and retrieval of large volumes of data based on emerging DNA technology.
Physics-Based Non-von Neumann Paradigm
By A. Raychowdhury A. Parihar, G. H. Smith, V. Narayanan, G. Csaba, M. Jerry, W. Porod, and S. Datta
This paper discusses a computing architecture inspired by physics, via the radically different approach of using arrays of oscillators.
By N. R. Shanbhag, N. Verma, Y. Kim, A. D. Patil, and L. R. Varshney
