While semiconductors and software continue to expand the capabilities of electronics products, a new kind of passive component is breaking into the fast lane. The memristor (short for memory varistor, or memory resistor) has been called the fourth type of... read more
Is there something else out there? At a fundamental level, everything in the Universe originates from natural processes of self-organization. At the lowest levels we see simple and highly deterministic processes or ‘rules’ that guide the time-... read more
AHaH Computing, Thermodynamic Computing, Competitive Computing, Memristive Dot-product Engines, Dual Memristor Cross bars – are these all different names or variation of the same thing? All are gaining the attention of the academic and commercial re... read more
The Oxide-Memristor Paradox Since launching Knowm Inc four years ago there has been a perplexing paradox that I believe has finally resolved itself. Soon after publication of AHaH Computing: From Meta-Stable Switches to Machine Learning I had the great fo... read more
Prerequisites How To Setup Your Knowm Developer Environment What is Knowm? Thermodynamic Computing Introduction The Memristor Discovery platform is a low cost educational and research tool for exploring memristor electronics. Originally developed as a ris... read more
Overview The purpose of this post is to give you some guidance on how to create your own Memristor Discovery experiment. We show you how to make a ‘clone’ of an existing experiment and then modify it for your own purposes. You should be somewh... read more
This is an English translation to a two-part article that appeared in the German Physics Magazine “Physik in unserer Zeit” in early 2018. The original articles can be found at the following links: Jenseits des Mooreschen Gesetzes and Thermodyn... read more
The Idea [2001] I was a junior undergraduate physics major with a new mission. A year earlier I stumbled the field of neural networks after a (quite literal) random walk through my college library. Frustrated with quantum mechanics, for which I was studyi... read more
Time to Take the Next Step Memristor crossbars, and memristors in general, can be difficult to work with. Outside of well equipped university and government labs its difficult to get hands-on experience. The equipment needed to fabricate and test the devi... read more
Read part 1 of this series here Private Beta Ahoy! Well, I certainly did not expect to get the attention that part one of this blog series received! People have reached out from around the world, some already asking when the product will be available, oth... read more
