What Is Programmable Matter Programmable matter is matter which has the ability to change its physical properties in a programmable fashion, based upon user input or autonomous sensing. Programmable matter is thus linked to the concept of a material which inherently has the ability to perform information processing. How You Will Benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: Programmable matter Chapter 2: Metamaterial Chapter 3: Electropermanent magnet Chapter 4: Self-reconfiguring modular robot Chapter 5: Claytronics Chapter 6: Cellular automaton Chapter 7: Quantum well Chapter 8: Synthetic biology (II) Answering the public top questions about programmable matter. (III) Real world examples for the usage of programmable matter in many fields. (IV) 17 appendices to explain, briefly, 266 emerging technologies in each industry to have 360-degree full understanding of programmable matter' technologies. Who This Book Is For Professionals, undergraduate and graduate students, enthusiasts, hobbyists, and those who want to go beyond basic knowledge or information for any kind of programmable matter.
An exploration of embodied intelligence and its implications points toward a theory of intelligence in general; with case studies of intelligent systems in ubiquitous computing, business and management, human memory, and robotics. How could the body influence our thinking when it seems obvious that the brain controls the body? In How the Body Shapes the Way We Think, Rolf Pfeifer and Josh Bongard demonstrate that thought is not independent of the body but is tightly constrained, and at the same time enabled, by it. They argue that the kinds of thoughts we are capable of have their foundation in our embodiment—in our morphology and the material properties of our bodies. This crucial notion ...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming, DNA 19, held in Tempe, AZ, USA, in September 2013. The 14 full papers presented were carefully selected from 29 submissions. The papers are organized in many disciplines (including mathematics, computer science, physics, chemistry, material science and biology) to address the analysis, design, and synthesis of information-based molecular systems.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming, DNA 24, held in Jinan, China, in October 2018. The 12 full papers presented were carefully selected from 14 submissions. Research in DNA computing aims to draw together mathematics, computer science, physics, chemistry, biology, and nanotechnology to address the analysis, design, and synthesis of information-based molecular systems. The papers were sought in all areas related to biomolecular computing, including: algorithms and models for computation on biomolecular systems; computational processes in vitro and in vivo; molecular switches, gates, devices, and circuits; molecular folding and self-assembly of nanostructures; analysis and theoretical models of laboratory techniques; molecular motors and molecular robotics; information storage; studies of fault tolerance and error correction; software tools for analysis, simulation, and design; synthetic biology and in vitro evolution; and applications in engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine.
The meeting took place at the University of Milano-Bicocca, Milan, Italy, from June 7 to June 10, 2004, and it was organized by the University of Milano-Bicocca and the Department of Informatics of the University of Milano-Bicocca.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 15th International Meeting on DNA Computing, DNA15, held in Fayetteville, AR, USA, in June 2009. The 16 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from 38 submissions. The papers feature current interdisciplinary research in molecular-scale manipulation of matter - in particular, implementation of nanoscale computation and programmed assembly of materials are of interest, thus reflecting a broader scope beyond DNA-based nanotechnology and computation.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 14th International Meeting on DNA Computing, DNA 14, held in Prague, Czech Republic, in June 2008. The 15 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 59 submissions. Their topics include theoretical models of biomolecular computing, demonstrations of biomolecular computing processes, self-assembly systems, DNA nanostructures and nanomachines, biotechnological and other applications of DNA computing, and other related themes.
Biomolecular/DNA computing is now well established as an interdisciplinary field where chemistry, computer science, molecular biology, physics, and mathematics come together with the common purpose of fundamental scientific understanding of biology and chemistry and its applications. This international meeting has been the premier forum where scientists with different backgrounds and a common focus meet to present their latest results and entertain visions of the future. In this tradition, about 100 participants converged in Memphis, Tennessee to hold the 13th International Meeting on DNA Computing during June 4–8, 2007, under the auspices of the International Society for Nanoscale Science...
