Unconventional computing is about breaking boundaries in thinking, acting and computing.
Typical topics of this non-typical field include, but are not limited to physics of computation …

Using physical experiments as oracles for algorithms, we can characterise the
computational power of classes of physical systems. Here we show that two different …

We have begun a theory of measurement in which an experimenter and his or her
experimental procedure are modeled by algorithms that interact with physical equipment …

We developed earlier a theory of combining algorithms with physical systems, on the basis
of using physical experiments as oracles to algorithms. Although our concepts and methods …

Earlier, we have studied computations possible by physical systems and by algorithms
combined with physical systems. In particular, we have analysed the idea of using an …

We argue that dynamical systems involving discrete and continuous data can be modelled
by Turing machines with oracles that are physical processes. Using the theory introduced in …

We introduce an abstract analogue-digital model of computation that couples Turing
machines to oracles that are physical processes. Since any oracle has the potential to boost …

What can algorithms compute with the help of information provided by an oracle that is a
physical system? We have developed a theory that combines Turing machines with …

Algorithms whose computations involve making physical measurements can be modelled by
Turing machines with oracles that are physical systems and oracle queries that obtain data …
