Fundamentals of Nanocomputing

About The Book

A computer that is smaller than a microcomputer, which is smaller than a minicomputer, is logically referred to as a nanocomputer. (The minicomputer was much smaller than the original (mainframe) computers, hence the name "mini"). Technically speaking, it is a computer whose core components are only a few nanometers in size. An effective technique for comprehending the physics and chemistry of nanoparticles is computational nanotechnology. An explanation for the observed data is established after doing a simulated experiment, and the theory is then verified by carrying out a lab experiment. The theory is accepted if the actual findings match those predicted by the hypothesis. Unexpected laboratory results can also be investigated using theoretical techniques, which frequently results in the creation of new theory. Electronic nanocomputers would function in the following way similar to how modern microcomputers operate. Physical scale is the main difference. As seen by the advancement of integrated circuits (ICs), which are capable of ever-increasing storage capacity and computing capability, more and more transistors are being crammed into silicon chips every year. The atomic structure of matter imposes the ultimate restriction on the quantity of transistors per unit volume. The majority of engineers concur that this limit has not yet been nearly reached by technology. Nanocomputer is a relative phrase in the electronic sense. Today's common microprocessors might be referred to as Nanodevices by standards from the 1970s. Computer engineers, scientists, administrators, public policy makers, and students in a variety of science and technical disciplines will all find the book to be interesting and helpful reading.
