Unconventional Computing in Music
Computer music is a truly interdisciplinary field; practitioners are well known for experimenting with new and developing technologies from a wide span of disciplines. Such experimentation is a tradition that stems back to the genesis of computer music, where a mathematician with a musical background programmed an early computer in the early 1950s to play a tune. The area of computer music has ...
متن کاملUNCONVENTIONAL COMPUTING PROBLEMS ? Selim
An evolving computation is one whose characteristics vary during its execution. These variations have many di erent origins and can manifest themselves in several ways. Thus, for example, the parameters of a computation, such as the data it uses, may vary with time independently of the computational environment in which the computation is carried out. Alternatively, it may be that the data inte...
متن کاملUnconventional Computing Catechism
*Correspondence: Christof Teuscher , Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Portland State University, 1900 SW 4th Avenue, Portland, OR 97206, USA e-mail: [email protected] What makes a new paradigm or technology promising? What should science, research, and industry invest money in? Is there a life after CMOS electronics? And will the vacuum tube be back? While one cannot predict th...
متن کاملUnconventional Quantum Computing Devices
This paper investigates a variety of unconventional quantum computation devices , including fermionic quantum computers and computers that exploit nonlinear quantum mechanics. It is shown that unconventional quantum computing devices can in principle compute some quantities more rapidly than 'conventional' quantum computers. Computers are physical: what they can and cannot do is determined by t...
متن کاملUnconventional Computing: a Short Introduction
Physics imposes some limits to the computations that we can perform. Because of these limits we cannot solve problems in almost no time and with almost zero energy consumption. The main problem is that we are asking too much from a single device: we want computers that play chess, solve equations, navigate on the internet etc. Because of this great generality we are paying some big prices (in t...
