- Additional information
- Implementation of combinational logic in unconventional and biological substrates is limited by error, which increases as the number of gates increases. This paper using a multi-agent model tests a pre-substrate transform to reduce the error to that of an individual gate. This was verified by implementing a single-bit full adder circuit in slime mould. The significance of this is the application of the transform to any unconventional computing substrate.
