Title
Speeding up computations via molecular biology.
Abstract
: We show how to extend the recent result of Adleman [1] to use biologicalexperiments to directly solve any NP problem. We, then, show how to use this methodto speedup a large class of important problems.1. IntroductionIn a recent breakthrough Adleman [1] showed how to use biological experiments to solveinstances of the famous Hamiltonian Path Problem (HPP). Since this problem is knownto be NP-complete it follows that biology can be used to solve any problem from NP.Recall that all...
