When does a control system compute? Digital, mechanical and open-loop systems
Dominic Horsman, Susan Stepney, Tim Clarke +1
Control systems are ubiquitous in modern technology, comprising an engineered plant to be kept within specific, often fine-tuned, limits, and a separate controller that ensures thi…
Lazy Quantum Walks with Native Multiqubit Gates
Steph Foulds, Viv Kendon
Quantum walks, the quantum analogue of the classical random walk, have been shown to underpin quantum algorithms for fluid dynamics. We propose the quantum half-adder gate method f…
Novel models of computation from novel physical substrates: a bosonic example
Sampreet Kalita, Benjamin W. Butler, Susan Stepney +1
Unconventional physical computing is producing many novel and exotic devices that can potentially be used in a computational mode. Currently, these tend to be used to implement tra…
Quantum smoothed particle hydrodynamics algorithm inspired by quantum walks
R. Au-Yeung, V. M. Kendon, S. J. Lind
Recent years have seen great progress in quantum computing, providing opportunities to overcome computational bottlenecks in many scientific applications. In particular, the inters…
