Abstract: Unconventional models of computing were discussed at a meeting in Auckland earlier this year. DNA computers, for example, can be proved to be universal computers by virtue of base-pair complementarity; and there are now several possible schemes for creating quantum computers. More concretely, a thermodynamically reversible computer was demonstrated for the first time.
