Molecular computer mimics human brain

Processor can solve complex problems, even heal itsel

The molecular computer can generate different patterns that are the equivalent of ones and zeros in a conventional computer.


A superthin computer just two molecules thick can solve complex problems and, somewhat like the human brain, can evolve to improve and perform many operations simultaneously.
This molecular processor can also heal itself if there is a defect, researchers added.
Modern computers operate at staggering speeds, capable of carrying out more than 10 trillion instructions per second. However, they generally perform operations in sequence, one thing at a time.
