Abstract
We present a novel scheme for data processing which is well-suited for implementation at the nanometer scale. The logic circuits comprise two-state cellular units which are driven by externally applied updates, in contrast to earlier proposals which relied on ground-state relaxation. The present structures can simultaneously process many inputs and are suitable for conventional, dissipative computing in addition to classical reversible computing and quantum computing.
