Scalable biocomputing on networks: design and mathematical foundations

该项目旨在通过提供一种有效解决组合数学问题的方法，开发具有颠覆计算潜力的技术。在过去的半个世纪里，电子计算机彻底改变了我们的生活，但也有它们无法完成的任务，通常是那些需要多任务处理的任务，就像我们的大脑一样。这个项目旨在通过物理上利用生物的分子部分在特殊数学设计的网络中移动来解决困扰传统计算机的“组合”数学问题，同时使用比电子设备少得多的能量，从而克服其中的一些问题。该项目希望在澳大利亚将这一新兴领域发展成为一种实用的、颠覆性的技术。

This project aims to develop technology with the potential to disrupt computation by providing a way to solve combinatorial mathematical problems in an efficient manner. Electronic computers have revolutionised our lives over the last half-century, but there are tasks they can not do, usually those requiring multi-tasking, much as our brains do. This project aims to overcome some of these problems by physically using molecular parts of living things moving within specially mathematically designed networks to solve, in parallel, "combinatorial" mathematical problems that vex traditional computers, while using far less energy than electronic devices. This project expects to develop this nascent field into a practically useful, disruptive technology based in Australia.
