Error-resistant implementation of DNA computations (1996) [27 citations — 5 self]
Abstract:
This paper introduces a new model of computation that employs the tools of molecular biology whose in vitro implementation is far more error-resistant than extant proposals. We describe an abstraction of the model which lends itself to natural algorithmic description, particularly for problems in the complexity class NP. In addition we describe a number of linear-time algorithms within our model, particularly for NP-complete problems. We describe an in vitro realisation of the model and conclude with a discussion of future work. 1
