Evolutionary Design of Collision-based Computing Schemes in Two-dimensional Cellular Automata

我们希望进化出新型的非结构化计算设备，其中计算是基于滑翔机(呼吸、孤子、缺陷的元胞自动机类似物)之间的碰撞，而不是传统计算体系结构强加的异质性。-以自然为灵感的设计解决方案和计算体系结构-将对新的和新兴的计算范例和体系结构以及非经典计算的高潜力领域做出重大贡献。该项目的成果将应用于未来无体系结构高性能计算机的自动化设计和制造。

We wish to evolve novel types of unstructured computational devices, where computation is based on collision between gliders (cellular-automaton analogues of breathers, solitons, defects) travelling in uniform space free from heterogeneity imposed by traditional computing architectures. A significant contribution --- nature-inspired design solutions and computing architectures --- will be made to the high-potential field of novel and emerging computational paradigms and architectures, and non-classical computation. Results of the project will be deployed in future automatic design and manufacturing of architecture-less high-performance computers.
