is capable of solving computational, reasoning and classification problems [15–19]. The intention of this chapter is to theoretically build the backbone of DNA computer which is necessary to take a leap toward the shift in paradigm. The major findings of this chapter are listed below:
• Demonstration to develop the models of DNA ANN using DNA oligonucleotides.
• Use of DNA sequences as input and output signal to constructs the basic architecture of the neuron.
• Illustration of the design strategy of DNA logic gates using the hybridization of the strands and the conformational deviations of the DNA secondary structures.
• Design strategy of DNA logic circuit to develop and control nano-scale DNA devices.
• Applications of nano-DNA-devices which can be designed using DNA ANN, DNA logic gates and logic circuit.
DNA computation is the successful amalgamation of computer science and biological science. This emerging way of computation has the capability to revolutionize the technological perspective of coming era if the following limitations can be resolved.
• As the algorithms of DNA computing involves a huge amount of DNA sequences and data as well, the probability of error exponentially increases.
• The steps of the methodologies using DNA oligonucleotides need human and mechanical assistance which often claim a long time.
• Biological experiments are very expensive. Thus, the implementation problem of DNA computation algorithms is one of the major limitations.
The present advent of DNA computing cannot allow it to replace classical silicon-based computation as now DNA computers are not easily programmable. But several research works are being conducted globally and scientists are dedicated in development of more systematic and error-tolerant protocols.
2.7 Conclusion
In this chapter, we have discussed the design strategy of artificial molecular machines which can efficiently replace traditional silicon-based computation. Computers and other electronic devices have made human being technologically more efficient than hundred years ago. Likewise, the development of DNA ANN and DNA logic gates are making human technologically capable to build molecular devices which will be more accomplished and more responsible toward the environment in coming era. In DNA computing, the mathematical and logical operations are replaced by the unique DNA chemistry and the Boolean bits are replaced by four nucleotides, i.e., Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C), and Thymine (T). Though the biochemical operations followed in DNA computation are much slower than conventional computing, the parallelism and storage capacity of DNA molecules are exponentially greater.
We are hardly in the first generation of artificial intelligence in the domain of silicon computing. But gradually AI is evolving and scientists are trying to make DNA-based artificial intelligence more applicable in near future, specifically for health protection. DNA computing deals with a large amount of DNA sequences, and thus, the probability of error increases exponentially. In near future, it may be conceivable to design DNA-silicon hybrid architecture or incorporate DNA computing to develop software as it has more adaptability than hardware. DNA computers may successfully replace traditional computing system if automation can be involved in this technology to reduce human or machine interference.
