Abstract :
We discuss the opportunities of performing associative processing based on the phase locking of coupled oscillators. The use of coupled oscillators, rather than Boolean logic, provides for implementations using emerging nano-technology such as magnetic spin torque oscillators and resonant body transistor oscillators, which each have the potential of lower energy operations and higher density scaling than traditional CMOS solutions.
