The art of molecular computing: Whence and whither

Abstract: An astonishingly diverse biomolecular circuitry orchestrates the functioning machinery underlying every living cell. These biomolecules and their circuits have been engineered not only for various industrial applications but also to perform other atypical functions that they were not evolved for-including computation. Various kinds of computational challenges, such as solving NP-complete problems with many variables, logical computation, neural network operations, and cryptography, have all been attempted thro… Show more

“…The originally field began with Len Adleman's demonstration of a computer application in 1994, it has now been extended to many other avenues, such as the advancement of storage technologies, nanoscale imaging modalities. synthetic controllers and reaction networks [10], [11]. Massive parallelism is the promise of DNA computing: with a given setup and enough DNA through parallel search once can theoretically solve huge problems.…”

“…Massive parallelism is the promise of DNA computing: with a given setup and enough DNA through parallel search once can theoretically solve huge problems. This could be much faster than a traditional computer, for which large quantities of hardware will be needed for massive parallelism, not just more DNA [10], [12].…”

“…This is the very first example of an all-photonic molecular logic platform operative in solid-state responding to the intrinsic parameters of the pulsed laser excitation source, such as the frequency and the pulse-width, along with the temperature as the physical stimulus, although other reports are known of systems actuated by chemical inputs. [42,43] The rationally designed nanoplatform consisting of monodispersed Yb 3+ /Er 3+doped Sr 2 YF 7 @Sr 2 YF 7 core@shell NPs synthesized through the thermal decomposition method whose luminescence acts in response to the parameters of the pulsed excitation source. The Yb 3+ /Er 3+ -co-doped core@shell platform is reconfigurable depending on the selected logic output and performs the photonic concatenation of a two-NAND logic gates.…”

“…The high capacity and chemical stability of DNA make it an ideal platform for data storage. This innovative technique was first proposed in 1988 [ 11 ]. A further step was investigated by Goldman and colleagues [ 12 ], they stored ASCII text, JPEG, and MP3 file formats in DNA and then shipped the DNA worldwide under standard conditions.…”
