项目摘要

We are seeking fuding for two PhD studentship positions aimed for interdisciplinary research, knowledge transfer and training in non-classical computation, the field of science emerging at the boundary between novel and nature-inspired computing paradigms and architectures, and non-linear chemistry and physics. We will explore complex behaviour and interaction dynamics of localised mobile excitation patterns to design working prototypes of architectureless computing devices. We experimentally demonstrate that excitation wave-fragments in a Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) medium with immobilised catalyst can be used to build elementary logical gates and circuits, and to simulate certain classes of mathematical machines. We represent information values of variables by the presence/absence or structure of wave-fragments. The wave-fragments may annihilate, fuse, split and change their velocity vectors as a result of collision with other wave-fragments --- thus the values of variables represented by the wave-fragments change and certain logical operations and information processing operations are implemented. We aim to theoretically design and experimentally build a universal collision-based massively-parallel processor based on excitable chemical reactions, where the space-time dynamics of travelling localised excitations realise embedded logical and arithmetical circuits and mathematical machines.

我们正在寻找两个博士生职位，旨在进行跨学科研究，知识转移和非经典计算方面的培训，在新的和自然启发的计算范例和体系结构之间出现的科学领域，以及非线性化学和物理。我们将探索局部移动激发模式的复杂行为和相互作用动力学，以设计无架构计算设备的工作原型。我们在实验上证明了具有固定催化剂的Belousov-Zhabotinsky(BZ)介质中的激发波碎片可以用来构建基本的逻辑门和电路，并可以模拟某些类型的数学机器。我们用波片的存在/不存在或结构来表示变量的信息值。由于与其他波片的碰撞，波片可能会湮灭、融合、分裂和改变其速度矢量-因此，波片所代表的变量的值发生变化，并实现某些逻辑运算和信息处理运算。我们的目标是从理论上设计和实验构建一个基于可激发化学反应的基于碰撞的通用大规模并行处理器，其中传播局域激发的时空动力学实现了嵌入式逻辑和算术电路以及数学机器。
