商品描述

Description:

The next great change in computer science and information technology will come from mimicking the techniques by which biological organisms process information. To do this computer scientists must draw on expertise in subjects not usually associated with their field, including organic chemistry, molecular biology, bioengineering, and smart materials. This book provides an introduction to the interdisciplinary field of molecular computing.

The book moves from abstract principles of molecular computing to the building of actual systems. The topics include the use of proteins and other molecules for information-processing, molecular recognition, computation in nonlinear media, computers based on physical reaction-diffusion systems found in chemical media, DNA computing, bioelectronics and protein-based optical computing, and biosensors.

Tanya Sienko is Chief Operating Officer of Paranoid Capital Management LLC.

Andrew Adamatzky is Senior Research Fellow in the Faculty of Computing, Engineering, and Mathematical Sciences at the University of the West of England, Bristol.

Nicholas G. Rambidi is Professor of Physics at Moscow State University.

The late Michael Conrad was Professor of Computer Science at Wayne State University.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

描述:
計算機科學和信息技術的下一個重大變革將來自於模仿生物有機體處理信息的技術。為了做到這一點,計算機科學家必須借鑒與他們領域通常不相關的專業知識,包括有機化學、分子生物學、生物工程和智能材料。本書介紹了跨學科領域的分子計算。

本書從分子計算的抽象原理到實際系統的構建。主題包括使用蛋白質和其他分子進行信息處理、分子識別、非線性媒介中的計算、基於化學媒介中的物理反應擴散系統的計算機、DNA計算、生物電子學和基於蛋白質的光學計算以及生物傳感器。

Andrew Adamatzky是英格蘭西部大學計算、工程和數學科學學院的高級研究員。

Nicholas G. Rambidi是莫斯科國立大學物理學教授。

已故的Michael Conrad是韋恩州立大學計算機科學教授。
