Introduction
The meaning and implementation of the term "computing" has changed greatly since ACM was first organized 60 years ago. This special section presents overview articles collectively called "non-silicon-based new computing paradigms …Computing with a Trillion Crummy Components
Attempting to build nanometer-scale circuits that are both defect- and fault-tolerant.Computation with Carbon Nanotube Devices
The remarkable properties of carbon nanotubes make them very promising candidates for future computing elements---both as a successor for silicon-basedtechnology and beyond.Molecular, Chemical, and Organic Computing
Evaluating computation at the level of individual molecules.Autonomous Programmable Biomolecular Devices Using Self-Assembled DNA Nanostructures
Surveying recent developments in bio-DNA computing.Toward a World with Quantum Computers
Surveying the recent past and projecting future developments and applications involving quantum information science.Optical Computing: Need and Challenge
Focusing on the reality and promise of optical computing.Micro/Nanofluidic Computing
Fluid-based computing may smooth the transition to microscale systems.Amoeba-Based Neurocomputing with Chaotic Dynamics
Implementing a deadlock-breaking neural computing scheme that can flexibly search for reasonable solutions without any resource allocation program.Parallel Computing on Any Desktop
Parallelization lets applications exploit the high throughput of new multicore processors, and the OpenMP parallel programming model helps developers create multithreaded applications.Domain Expert User Development: the Smartgov Approach
The European Union's SmartGov project transforms public-sector employees into developers of the government e-services used directly by the public.The Online Consumer's Hierarchy of Needs
Web site designers take heed: Not all interface characteristics are created equal.What Matters When Introducing New Information Technology
Focusing on the right issues at the right time increases the likelihood of success.Sox, Compliance, and Power Relationships
There are several tactics CIOs can use for SOX compliance implementation. A pivotal one is understanding their relationship with the CEO, CFO, and auditors.What's Wrong with Online Privacy Policies?
Research has shown that privacy policies tend to intensify privacy concerns rather than engender trust. One way to combat this dichotomy is to redesign their content, language, and presentation format.COLUMN: Technical opinion
