Know about the book -

Computational Matter is written by Susan Stepney and published by Springer. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3319658263 (ISBN 10) and 9783319658261 (ISBN 13).

This book is concerned with computing in materio: that is, unconventional computing performed by directly harnessing the physical properties of materials. It offers an overview of the field, covering four main areas of interest: theory, practice, applications and implications. Each chapter synthesizes current understanding by deliberately bringing together researchers across a collection of related research projects. The book is useful for graduate students, researchers in the field, and the general scientific reader who is interested in inherently interdisciplinary research at the intersections of computer science, biology, chemistry, physics, engineering and mathematics.
