What's New in DNA Computing and Its Latest Developments?

AI Thread Summary
DNA computing is an emerging technology that utilizes biological molecules for computational processes. Recent discussions highlight significant advancements in the field, including the ability to manufacture DNA structures for specific purposes, such as creating microscopic images. Notable contributions include Leonard Adelman's classic 1994 paper on using DNA to solve the Hamiltonian path problem and a more recent 2007 paper on a DNA-based sorting algorithm. These developments indicate a growing interest in the potential applications of DNA computing, suggesting it could be a viable alternative to traditional computing methods.

Hello,

This morning, I was reading some stuff about DNA Computing on wiki, arstechnica, and other places.. I found it quite interesting and want to know the latest happening in the same area. If any of you is working on this new technology then please let's discuss about it.

Thanks

I do not work in the area (Biology degree student) yet I can reffer you to a couple of papers on DNA computing.

The classic paper by Leonard Adelman(1994) on solving a hamiltonian path problem with DNA http://www.ra.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/~virazela/Seminar/adl94.pdf"

A recent paper (2007) on a sorting algorithm by flipping using dna "[URL

Hope it helps.

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'

Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
