Summary on Grant Application Form |
Reaction/diffusion (RD) chemical systems are well known for their unique ability to efficiently solve combinatorial problems with natural parallelism. In liquid-phase parallel processors, both the data and the results of the computation are encoded as concentration profiles of the reagents. The computation per se is performed via the spreading and interaction of wave fronts. The RD chemical computers are parallel because the chemical medium's micro-volumes update their states simultaneously, and molecules diffuse and react in parallel. We propose to set up a virtual research centre, Anglo-Japanese collaborative network, in non-classical computation based on principles of information processing in physical and chemical media. The proposed Anglo-Japanese collaboration has the potential to deliver the same benefits as large international centres in non-linear sciences but at lower costs and the research results are expected to exceed those obtained in other research centres
