Adding analogue processing to digital hardware is the key to adaptability and maximum battery life in the nano-scale age, according to the University of Southampton, which is advocating memristors and charge-based processing as the way to do it. Memristors are non-volatile electrically-adjustable resistors. Made from metal oxides, they scale well and are proposed as memory ...
