THE NANOK CALCULUS HAS BEEN RECENTLY INTRODUCED AS A TOOL FOR THE MODELING AND SIMULATION OF THE BEHAVIOUR OF NANO DEVICES. ITS BASIC COMPONENTS ARE MOLECULES SPECIFIED IN TERMS OF AN INTERFACE AND A SET OF FIELDS.

Abstract
THE NANOK CALCULUS HAS BEEN RECENTLY INTRODUCED AS A TOOL FOR THE MODELING AND SIMULATION OF THE BEHAVIOUR OF NANO DEVICES. ITS BASIC COMPONENTS ARE MOLECULES SPECIFIED IN TERMS OF AN INTERFACE AND A SET OF FIELDS. THE INTERFACE IS USED TO REPRESENT THE BONDS BETWEEN THE SPECIFIED MOLECULE AND THE OTHER MOLECULES IN THE NANO DEVICE. THE FIELDS, ON THE OTHER HAND, DESCRIBE THE INTERNAL STATE OF THE MOLECULE. THE DYNAMICS IS MODELED BY MEANS OF REACTIONS DEFINED IN TERMS OF REWRITING RULES APPLIED TO PAIRS OF ABSTRACTLY SPECIFIED MOLECULES. IN THIS PAPER WE DISCUSS THE COMPARISON BETWEEN THE NANOK SPECIFICATION AND THE TRADITIONAL SPECIFICATION OF A TWO-STATION ROTAXANE, A VERSATILE MOLECULAR SHUTTLE CURRENTLY USED AS A BUILDING BLOCK FOR MORE COMPLEX NANO DEVICES.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
