Harvard, Mitre cook up programmable nanoprocessor | Cutting Edge - CNET News

Harvard, Mitre cook up programmable nanoprocessor | Cutting Edge - CNET News: Researchers at Harvard University and Mitre have detailed the architecture for a programmable nanoprocessor built out of ultra-small nanowires.
The nanoprocessor, outlined in a Nature article published this week, is formed of 496 non-volatile field effect transistor (FET) nodes arranged in a 960-micrometer-square area, overlaid with semiconductor materials.
