A thermodynamically favoured molecular computer
TL;DR - A scaffolded DNA computer performs multiple types of computation while thermodynamically relaxing toward equilibrium. The approach could enable simpler, reusable, fast, robust, and scalable molecular computing.
- Demonstrated 10 programs, including parity and multiplication.
- Performed addition on 25-bit inputs.
- Uses thermodynamically favored relaxation rather than computation driven away from equilibrium.
- Shows one molecular-computing framework can support diverse computational tasks.
