Stochastic Computing Using Droplet-Based Microfluidics

Abstract

In this work, we consider the realization of stochastic computing in the microfluidic domain. To this end, we exploit the fact that both, the bit streams and the operations required for stochastic computing can be realized in microfluidic systems through droplet streams and microfluidic gates. Simulating the trajectory of the individual droplets through the microfluidic gates confirmed the validity of our approach.
