This article reviews the growing body of scientific work in artificial chemistry. First, common
motivations and fundamental concepts are introduced. Second, current research activities …

DNA is a reliable biomolecule with which to build molecular computation systems. In
particular, DNA logic circuits (diffusion-based) have shown good performance regarding …

Synthetic biology (SB) offers a unique opportunity for designing complex molecular circuits
able to perform predefined functions. But the goal of achieving a flexible toolbox of reusable …

This volume explores abductive cognition, an important but, at least until the third quarter of
the last century, neglected topic in cognition. The book aims at increasing knowledge about …

This is the first book on DNA computing, a molecular approach that may revolutionize
computing-replacing silicon with carbon and microchips with DNA molecules. The book …

How can molecules compute? In his early studies of reversible computation, Bennett
imagined an enzymatic Turing Machine which modified a hetero-polymer (such as DNA) to …

Algorithmic design, especially for hard problems, is more essential for success in solving
them than any standard improvement of current computer tech nologies. Because of this, the …

Recently Adleman [1] has shown that a small traveling salesman problem can be solved by
molecular operations. In this paper we show how the same principles can be applied to …

Molecular communication has been recently proposed for interconnected nano-scale
devices as an alternative to classical communication paradigms such as electromagnetic …

The eld usually referred to as mathematical biology is a highly interdisciplinary area that lies
at the intersection of mathematics and biology. Classical illustrations include the …
