纳米电路的新组装工艺可能为目前用于计算机的详细设计和放置提供令人信服的替代方案。然而，由此产生的体系结构可能无法通过标准方式进行编程。本文采用自适应方法对具有非常规结构的纳米计算机进行编程。该设备的内部被视为一个“黑匣子”，编程是通过操纵“控制电压”来实现的。学习算法用于设置控制。作为示例，实现了逻辑门和简单的算术电路。此外，类似的方法允许设备的重新配置，并使它们抵抗某些类型的故障。
Novel assembly processes for nanocircuits could present compelling alternatives to the detailed design and placement currently used for computers. The resulting architectures however may not be programmable by standard means. In this paper, nanocomputers with unconventional architectures are programmed using adaptive methods. The internals of the device are treated as a "black box" and programming is achieved by manipulating "control voltages". Learning algorithms are used to set the controls. As examples, logic gates and simple arithmetic circuits are implemented. Additionally, similar methods allow for reconfiguration of the devices, and makes them resistant to certain kinds of faults.
