Abstract
Inspired by the basic processes of molecular biology, our studies resulted in defining a configurable molecule implementing mechanisms made up of simple processes. The goal of our paper is to demonstrate how these bio-inspired mechanisms and their underlying processes perform on cellular architectures. The hardware description of the molecule with all its bio-inspired mechanisms leads to the simulation of an image processing array and an arithmetic and logic unit.
