How Can We Compute with Arrays of Nanstructures?

Abstract

In part the goal of the Ultra Program is to extract useful computation from nanometer scale effects. To accomplish this goal those of us who are computer scientists must communicate clearly to those of you who are chemists and device physicists precisely what kinds of "computational primitives" you need to obtain from a nanoscale structure before we can contemplate using it as a building block for ultra-dense ultra-fast computation.
