The switching behavior of individual non-volatile memory devices thus cannot be described within the mathematical framework proposed for memristor/memristive systems. An extra thermodynamic curiosity arises from the definition that memristors/memristive devices should energetically act like resistors.
While the memristor is defined in terms of a two-terminal circuit element, there was an implementation of a three-terminal device called a memistor developed by Bernard Widrow in 1960. Memistors formed basic components of a neural network architecture called ADALINE developed by Widrow. [1] [2] The memistor was also used in MADALINE.
An example of a bio-MEMS device is this automated FISH microchip, which integrates a reagent multiplexer, a cell chamber with a thin-film heater layer, and a peristaltic pump. [1] Bio-MEMS is an abbreviation for biomedical (or biological) microelectromechanical systems.
The Caravelli-Traversa-Di Ventra equation (CTDV) is a closed-form equation to the evolution of networks of memristors.It was derived by Francesco Caravelli (Los Alamos National Laboratory), Fabio L. Traversa (Memcomputing Inc.) and Massimiliano Di Ventra (UC San Diego) to study the exact evolution of complex circuits made of resistances with memory (memristors).
On the other hand, a cross-point architecture is more compact and may enable vertically stacking memory layers, ideal suited for mass-storage devices. However, in the absence of any transistors, isolation must be provided by a "selector" device, such as a diode, in series with the memory element or by the memory element itself. Such isolation ...
In the paper "Memristive Devices and Systems" by Chua and Kang (1976) the model of memristive systems was shown to be applicable to the Hodgkin-Huxley model describing action potentials in neurons. Greg Snider at HP Labs is also working on designing a neuromorphic architecture based on memristors which was described at the 2008 Memristor and ...
MEMS microcantilever resonating inside a scanning electron microscope Proposal submitted to DARPA in 1986 first introducing the term "microelectromechanical systems". MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) is the technology of microscopic devices incorporating both electronic and moving parts.
A ribosome is a biological machine that utilizes protein dynamics. At the first C.E.C. Workshop, in Brussels in November 1991, bioelectronics was defined as 'the use of biological materials and biological architectures for information processing systems and new devices'.
