Probabilistic Logic Gate in Asynchronous Game of Life with Critical Property
share
Metaheuristic and self-organizing criticality (SOC) could contribute to robust computation under perturbed environments. Implementing a logic gate in a computing system in a critical state is one of the intriguing ways to study the role of metaheuristics and SOCs. Here, we study the behavior of cellular automaton, game of life (GL), in asynchronous updating and implement probabilistic logic gates by using asynchronous GL. We find that asynchronous GL shows a phase transition, that the density of the state of 1 decays with the power law at the critical point, and that systems at the critical point have the most computability in asynchronous GL. We implement AND and OR gates in asynchronous GL with criticality, which shows good performance. Since tuning perturbations play an essential role in operating logic gates, our study reveals the interference between manipulation and perturbation in probabilistic logic gates.
