Ultimate bounds on the maximum operating frequency of networks of quantum dot cellular automata devices have yet to be established. We consider the adiabaticity of such networks in the two-state approximation where clocking is achieved via…

We describe a class of cellular automata (CAs) that are end-to-end differentiable. DCAs interpolate the behavior of ordinary CAs through rules that act on distributions of states. The gradient of a DCA with respect to its parameters can be…

Cellular Automata (CAs) are computational models that can capture the essential features of systems in which global behavior emerges from the collective effect of simple components, which interact locally. During the last decades, CAs have…

For any group $G$ and set $A$, a cellular automaton over $G$ and $A$ is a transformation $\tau : A^G \to A^G$ defined via a finite neighborhood $S \subseteq G$ (called a memory set of $\tau$) and a local function $\mu : A^S \to A$. In this…
