On half-adders based on fusion of signal carriers: Excitation, fluidics, and electricity (2016)
Journal Article
Adamatzky, A. (2016). On half-adders based on fusion of signal carriers: Excitation, fluidics, and electricity. Complex Systems -Champaign-, 25(3),

Likely outcomes of a collision between two objects are annihilation, reflection or fusion. We show how to construct a one-bit adder with pattern that fuse on impact. A fusion gate has two inputs and three outputs. When a signal is generated on a si... Read More about On half-adders based on fusion of signal carriers: Excitation, fluidics, and electricity.
