Abstract
A novel experimental set-up realized for the real time analysis of reconfigurable complex networks, with chaotic Chua’s circuits as nodes, is considered. It has been designed to easily perform large scale experiments on networks of chaotic oscillators, possibly exploring in real time the parameters space in terms of topologies, coupling strengths, nodes’ dynamics, with potential application in the area of neuro-computing and associative dynamic memories. A sample of the capabilities is given by considering diffusive coupling with a large range of coupling strengths in a set of topologies, and first experiments on a ring of 32 chaotic nodes are reported. Synchronization, chaotic waves and patterns are experimentally observed, and the potential of the realized set-up in terms of accuracy, flexibility and analysis time is fully revealed.
