Why genetic information processing could be quantum
Living organisms are not just random collections of organic molecules. There is continuous information processing going on in the apparent bouncing around of molecules of life. Optimisation criteria in this information processing can be searched for using the laws of physics. Quantum dynamics can explain why living organisms have 4 nucleotide bases and 20 amino acids, as optimal solutions of th...
متن کاملWhy Quantum Information Processing
In this brief note, I will consider the following questions: (1) What is QIP? (2) Why QIP is interesting? (3) What QIP can do? (4) What QIP cannot do? (5) What are the major challenges in QIP? Some guest lecturers may also be invited for special topics on the subject.
متن کاملWhat Sort of Information-Processing Machinery Could Ancient Geometers Have Used?
There have been many automated geometry theorem provers since Gelernter’s 1964 prover discovered a proof of the ‘Pons Asinorum’ not previously known to the developer. But they all start with logic-based formulations of Euclid’s axioms, postulates, etc. (e.g. using David Hilbert’s axiomatization, and assuming the Cartesian coordinate representation of geometry). But that is not how the ancient m...
متن کاملWhy Do Firms Have Information Systems?
In this essay, it is suggested that a multi-level interaction perspective offers insight in answering the fundamental question, “Why do firms have IS?” The role of humancomputer interaction (HCI) in firms is recast in this context and seen to be basic to the modern firm’s interactions more broadly, with implications for firm capabilities and organizational learning.
متن کاملQuantum Information Processing Theory
Definition Quantum information processing theory is an alternative mathematical approach for generating theories of how an observer processes information. Typically, quantum information processing models are derived from the axiomatic principles of quantum probability theory. This probability theory may be viewed as a generalization of classic probability. Quantum information processing models ...
