Grand Challenge 7: Journeys in Non-Classical Computation

摘要

We review progress in Grand Challenge 7: Journeys in Non-Classical Computation. We overview GC7-related events, review some background work in certain aspects of GC7 (hypercomputation, bio-inspired computation, and embodied computation) and identify some of the unifying challenges. We review the progress in implementations of one class of non-classical computers: reaction-diffusion systems. We conclude with warnings about "regression to the classical".
