Executive Summary
Silicon processors, ferromagnetic storage, LCD screens, and multi-million line programs are the body and soul of today's computers. But a new species of computer is evolving in corporate and university research centers — one that's based on the chemistry of proteins, DNA, and other biological material. Biochemical computing promises advances in the entire stack, from the user interface to processing power, memory, and storage. Since these biochemical alternatives must interface with existing machines, they are building a bridge between devices, materials, and organisms that will soon allow engineers to develop biological code and processes as easily as they build today's IT systems.
