Physics for neuromorphic computing [PDF]
Nature Reviews Physics, 2020 Neuromorphic computing takes inspiration from the brain to create energy efficient hardware for information processing, capable of highly sophisticated tasks. In this article, we make the case that building this new hardware necessitates reinventing electronics. We show that research in physics and material science will be key to create artificial nano-

Smörgåsbords for Physical Computing
Proceedings of the Fifteenth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction, 2021 Physical computing concerns the design of systems that can sense and respond to the world around them, which is why it is often used in interaction design projects in educational settings. However, students who encounter physical computing for the first time are typically not aware of the form factors and the potential for interaction of the various ...

Computability and Physical Theories [PDF]
Foundations of Physics, 1986 The familiar theories of physics have the feature that the application of the theory to make predictions in specific circumstances can be done by means of an algorithm. We propose a more precise formulation of this feature --- one based on the issue of whether or not the physically measurable numbers predicted by the theory are computable in the ...

Difference schemes of high order accuracy for mathematical physics problems in arbitrary domains
Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2000 In the present paper the difference schemes of high order accuracy for two‐dimensional equations of mathematical physics in an arbitrary domain are constructed. The computational domain is covered by a uniform rectangular grid.

The physics of optical computing
Nature Reviews Physics, 2023 There has been a resurgence of interest in optical computing over the past decade, both in academia and in industry, with much of the excitement centered around special-purpose optical computers for neural-network processing. Optical computing has been a topic of periodic study for over 50 years, including for neural networks three decades ago, and a ...

Physics and the new computation [PDF]
, 1995 New computation devices increasingly depend on particular physical properties rather than on logical organization alone as used to be the case in conventional technologies. This has impact on the synthesis and analysis of algorithms and the computation models on which they are to run. Therefore, scientists working in these areas will have to understand

Introduction: computability of the physical [PDF]
Mathematical Structures in Computer Science, 2012 Albert Einstein encapsulated a commonly held view within the scientific community when he wrote in his book Out of My Later Years (Einstein 1950, page 54) ‘When we say that we understand a group of natural phenomena, we mean that we have found a constructive theory which embraces them.’ This represents a dual challenge to the scientist: on the one hand,

Semantics of Computable Physical Models
Studia Logica, 2023 AbstractThis article reformulates the theory of computable physical models, previously introduced by the author, as a branch of applied model theory in first-order logic. It provides a semantic approach to the philosophy of science that incorporates aspects of operationalism and Popper’s degrees of falsifiability.
