Line of Investigation
Our main line of investigation uses unconventional computing as a means of building novel computing paradigms, such as in biology, physics and chemistry.
We are attempting to construct discrete dynamical systems capable of simulating cellular computation. Therefore, our work focuses on molecular computation. We thus have three models using cellular automata theory (you can see our original contributions [http://uncomp.uwe.ac.uk/genaro/ click here]).
Cellular automata (CA) operate over a scales ranging from the molecular level to n-dimensions and are massively parallel. Also, they are capable of supporting universal computation, self-repair and self-reproduction.
We wish contribute to the iGEM project development various protein based bio-components. We will work along three main lines: complex and reversible dynamical systems and formal languages, that support particles and multiple reactions, related to the molecular transformations.
We aim to develop CA software for a specific bio-simulation and gradually implement broader real biological scenarios.
