Abstract :
Advanced technologies and their potential for the next generation of supercomputers are addressed. Among them are bacteria serving as lithographic masks, computer chips grown from organic molecules, beams of light in free space acting as input/output ´buses´, and architectures without logic gates that yield an answer without calculations. The need for a universal computational model for parallel processing is discussed. The use of neural networks is considered.<>
