DNA Computing

DNA computing avails DNA, biochemistry and molecular biology, instead of transistors on silicon wafers. If we are able to tap its potential, we could be able to store huge amount of data as compared to what we can store in our laptops. DNA computing inherently considers multiple solutions at a time so it can be used in areas which require parallel computing capability.

Researchers have already developed DNA logic gates which modulates the genetic material. So, we have already started on that road. The technology is still in the infancy stage Continue reading →

Software for Quantum computers

Quantum computers may be heralded as the future of computing but we need software to make use of them. Otherwise, Quantum computers would be a technology with untapped latent talent. People might be thinking of supplanting classical computers with quantum one, but it wouldn’t take place in a day or this weekend. Programmers need to write their code for hybrid processors using quantum computing model as an accelerator. This is because quantum computers are not better than classical one in every field. But Quantum computers are way ahead in some of them.

Any human being who wants to write code for quantum computers needs to be aware of Continue reading →
