The present document is devoted to the question of whether effective computation can be performed by the interaction of solitons [24, 34] in a bulk medium. The resulting computational system would fulfill the promise of Tooli’s “programmable matter” [42] | offering computation that is very close to the underlying physics, and therefore potentially providing ultra-scale parallel processing.
