Lecturer "Molecular Computing: A Novel Computing Paradigm"
Speaker Jian-Qin Liu (ATR Human Information Science Laboratories)
Abstract In this talk, we will review the theories, technologies and latest progresses of molecular computing based on bio-molecular structures, and focus on the self-assembly mechanism of bio-molecular computers, which offers us a strong potential in reducing the cost of NP problem solving and a huge information capacity for fine-grained parallelism. While analyzing the manipulations inspired by molecular biology, we discuss certain issues on algorithm designing of molecular computation (that includes "kinase computing" we proposed recently), which is expected to be beneficial to the understanding of the nature at the molecular level and prospect applications in emerging fields of information and communication technologies.
Resume Jian-Qin Liu received his B.S. in computer science from Nankai University in 1986, M.S. in automation theory and applications from Xi'an Jiaotong University in 1992, and Ph.D. in industrial automation from Central South University of Technology in 1997. He is an invited researcher at ATR Human Information Science Labs. (Japan) since 2001 and a professor of college of information sciences and engineering of Central South University (China) since 2000.
He was a guest researcher at Information and Communication R & D Center of Ricoh Co. Ltd. (1994-1995), an invited researcher at ATR Human Information Processing Res. Labs (1999-2000) and at the Information Sciences Division of ATR International (2000-2001), assistant lecturer (1986-1991) and lecturer (1991-1994) at the department of information and control engineering of Xi'an Jiaotong Univ. and an associate professor (1995-1999) of college of information engineering of Central South Univ. of Technology.
