Overview

  • Brings together a series of topics of memristive devices, circuits, and computational systems which were never previously studied and analyzed in a single volume
  • Presents a comprehensive review of the most recognized memristive Boolean logic design concepts which are based on collective memristive dynamics and support parallel processing of input signals
  • Provides a summary of research results on applications of memristors and sets off the merits when memristors are used either as two-state switches or as analog devices in computing
  • Written in a simple language accessible by scientists, researchers, engineers, as well as undergraduate students
  • Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book

This book considers the design and development of nanoelectronic computing circuits, systems and architectures focusing particularly on memristors, which represent one of today’s latest technology breakthroughs in nanoelectronics. The book studies, explores, and addresses the related challenges and proposes solutions for the smooth transition from conventional circuit technologies to emerging computing memristive nanotechnologies. Its content spans from fundamental device modeling to emerging storage system architectures and novel circuit design methodologies, targeting advanced non-conventional analog/digital massively parallel computational structures. Several new results on memristor modeling, memristive interconnections, logic circuit design, memory circuit architectures, computer arithmetic systems, simulation software tools, and applications of memristors in computing are presented. High-density memristive data storage combined with memristive circuit-design paradigms and computational tools applied to solve NP-hard artificial intelligence problems, as well as memristive arithmetic-logic units, certainly pave the way for a very promising memristive era in future electronic systems. Furthermore, these graph-based NP-hard problems are solved on memristive networks, and coupled with Cellular Automata (CA)-inspired computational schemes that enable computation within memory. All chapters are written in an accessible manner and are lavishly illustrated. The book constitutesan informative cornerstone for young scientists and a comprehensive reference to the experienced reader, hoping to stimulate further research on memristive devices, circuits, and systems.
