NVRAM With Disordered Assemblies (Smaller/Cheaper)

Posted by Hemos on from the but-the-world-must-have-order dept.

chadjg writes " Jim Tour, of Rice University says "Our research shows that ordered precision isn't a prerequisite for computing. It is possible to make memory circuits out of disordered systems." The article on www.e4engineering.com says the team has made "NanoCells", self assembled devices made from gold nanowires and organic conductive molecules. These NanoCells are the first devices of their kind to be made into working microelectronic devices, apparently." Yep. Let an untold number of machines try to create NanoCells, and statistics says you'll find the most efficient kind.

    I remember watching some poor slob in a Chuckie Cheese costume get swarmed by a horde of anklebiters. I can only imagine how wonderful it would be to wear a hot-smells-like-pizza-with-no-visibility rat costume as little tykes randomly ram you in the crotch as they mill about and cling to your legs. After the poor slob had been hammered back against the stage for about 10 minutes, one of the other characters appeared and said, "Time for Chuckie to go kids!" He finally managed to pull enough kids off of poor Chuckie, allowing him to flail backwards out of sight behind the stage curtain. I wonder if they offer free counselling to the wearers of the Chuckie Cheese costumes?
