Cellular nanoscale sensory wave computing

This book is a result of a Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) project that has been funded by the Office of Naval Research and completed recently. The results manifest a new way of thinking about sensory computing, as well as being one of the first successful attempts to bridge the gap between nanoscale (smaller than 100 nm) devices and CMOS integrated circuits withstored programmable algorithms and software on the system level. In this bookthe emerging and converging architecture of morphic cellular wave computers based on the concept of Cellular Neural/Nonlinear Network (CNN) is introduced in a practical way. The book also discusses the architecture and operation of avision system on a chip (VSoC) which is in the first single chip cellular wave computer. Discusses the combination of sensing and computation on a single chip, particularly an entire vision system on a chip Addresses the cellular wave computing concept and architecture in regards to emerging post-CMOS nanoelectronics architecture as well as the many thousand core chips Describes many new developments, such as the nanoscale antenna and 3D monolithic integration ofsensing and computing Presents the practical and complex algorithms for mission critical applications running on the new cellular visual microprocessors aswell as on the 1024 core FPGA Covers a new kind of computer science and algorithmic base that is emerging for million processor systems with several thousand processor chips Includes a special aspect on biological relevance which explains the multichannel processing in a mammalian retina in connection to the cellular wave computing paradigm INDICE: A Brief History of CNN at ONR.- Cellular Wave Computing in Nanoscale via Million Processor Chips.- Nanoantenna Infrared Detectors.- Memristors: A New Nanoscale CNN Cell.- Circuit Models of Nanoscale Devices.- A CMOS VisionSystem On-Chip with Multi-Core, Cellular Sensory-Processing Front-End.- Cellular Multi-core Processor Carrier Chip for Nano-antenna Integration and Experiments.- Circuitry Underlying Visual Processing in the Retina.- Elastic Grid Based Multi-Fovea Algorithm for Real-Time Object-Motion Detection in Airborne Surveillance.- Many-core Processing Array Architecture Selection Guide for Topographic Problems.
