DNA computing aims at using nucleic acids for computing. Since micromolar DNA solutions can act as billions of parallel nanoprocessors, DNA computers can in theory solve optimization problems that require vast search spaces. However, the actual parallelism currently being achieved is at least a hundred million-fold lower than the number of DNA molecules used. This is due to the quantity of DNA ...

In April 2003, it is announced that DNA sequence analysis of the human genome has been completed, which marks exactly a half century’s anniversary since the Nobel prize was awarded to Watson and Crick for their theory of DNA double strands in 1953. Bioscience nowadays has been attracting considerable attention, and a lot of research efforts have been made to analyze molecular information such a...

DNA computing is emerging research area that attracts many researchers in multidiscipline area range from biology, physics, mathematics, and computer science. Nowadays, many researchers already solved problem using this technique, mostly classified as NP (Nondeterministic Polynomial) problem since the inheritance of DNA computing in processing simultaneously and it huge memory capacity. Despite...

DNA computing, or, more generally, molecular computing, is an exciting fast developing interdisciplinary area. Research in this area concerns theory, experiments, and applications of DNA computing. In this paper, we demonstrate the theoretical developments by discussing a number of selected topics. We also give an introduction to the basic structure of DNA and the basic DNA processing tools. c ...

Creative conceptual design is an important area in computer aided innovation. Typical design methodology includes exploration and optimization by evolutionary techniques such as EC and swarm intelligence. Although there are many proposed algorithms and applications for creative design by these techniques, the computing models are implemented mostly by traditional von Neumann's architecture. On ...

in order to improve the level of intelligence, availability, being on demand, convenience, information and humanization of rural public transportation systems, they are more willing to use modern information and communicative technologies. in addition to management services, intelligent transportation systems can provide passengers, drivers, travel agencies and other institutions with other ser...

Deoxyribonucleic Acid or DNA computing has emerged as an interdisciplinary field that draws together chemistry, molecular biology, computer science and mathematics. Thus, in this paper, the possibility of DNA-based computing to solve an absolute 1-center problem by molecular manipulations is presented. This is truly the first attempt to solve such a problem by DNA-based computing approach. Sinc...

Recent experimental progress in DNA lattice construction, DNA robotics, and DNA computing provide the basis for designing DNA cellular computing devices, i.e. autonomous nano-mechanical DNA computing devices embedded in DNA lattices. Once assembled, DNA cellular computing devices can serve as reusable, compact computing devices that perform (universal) computation, and programmable robotics dev...
