Visit at Heinz Nixdorf MuseumsForum
In April an excursion brought our team to Heinz Nixdorf MuseumsForum (HNF) in Paderborn. The museum has a unique collection of past computing hardware ranging f... Read more.
Contribution to bitkom paper on Future Computing technologies
At the beginning of last year, we joined the writing team of a paper on alternative computing concepts lead by the German IT industry association “bitkom”. ... Read more.
Atoms / Point Defects
This page deals with the properties of excitable single free atoms and of point defects inside solid state matter. The properties of molecules as information ca... Read more.
Photons / Plasmons
Photons Photons are elementary quantum particles without charge and rest mass that make up electromagnetic radiation (light, micro waves, radio waves etc.). The... Read more.
Unconventional Electronics
Electrons are elementary particles and have many unique properties that make them ideal for highly integrated logic devices. The spin property of electrons is a... Read more.
Reconfigurable
A reconfigurable hardware architecture can be adapted post-production, i.e. at start-up-time or even at run-time, to the computational needs. That means, a use-... Read more.
Reversible/Adiabatic Computing
Every loss of information, e.g. by merging two paths of information into a new one, will increase the entropy, i.e. create noise or heat. Landauer’s princ... Read more.
About this project
The development of universal computers based on the von-Neumann architecture and built from the complementary metal-oxide-semiconductors (CMOS) logic is a treme... Read more.
Communication
In order to compute multiple data in a computing device, multiple data have to be brought together. This spacial transport happens via communication paths, e.g.... Read more.
