Emerging Memristor-Based Logic Circuit Design Approaches: A Review

This article is a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art of memristor-based logic circuit design concepts of the recent literature. Amongst all the identified circuit design approaches, those discussed here are all based on collective memristive dynamics and share a number of common characteristics which facilitate their comparison. The focus is on the evolution of the memristor-based logic circuit design strategies from the early proposed sequential stateful logic up to most recently published design schemes which support parallel processing of the applied input signals. The main operational properties of all the selected computational concepts are presented in an accessible manner, aiming to serve as an informative cornerstone for students and scientists who wish to get involved in emerging memristive logic circuit research and development.
