The continuous search for more efficient and energy-effective computing technologies drives researchers into various fields, seemingly not related to computing at all. It turns out, however, that system dynamics is the powerful computational medium, irrespectively of the physical nature of the system itself. This review presents a potpourri of systems and devices which share the common feature — they evolve in time, respond to the external signals and are thus suitable for information processing. It makes them useful for computational purposes and even for such demanding applications as autonomous robotics.

Abstract
The continuous search for more efficient and energy-effective computing technologies drives researchers into various fields, seemingly not related to computing at all. It turns out, however, that system dynamics is the powerful computational medium, irrespectively of the physical nature of the system itself. This review presents a potpourri of systems and devices which share the common feature — they evolve in time, respond to the external signals and are thus suitable for information processing. It makes them useful for computational purposes and even for such demanding applications as autonomous robotics.File in questo prodotto:
