👉 Sodium computing refers to the use of sodium ions (Na+) as computational units or elements in a novel approach to information processing, inspired by biological neuronal networks. Sodium ions naturally flow across cell membranes in response to electrical signals, and this flow can be harnessed to perform computational tasks. In sodium computing, these ionic currents are used to represent binary data (0s and 1s) and perform logical operations, mimicking the way neurons communicate and process information. This method leverages the fast dynamics of sodium currents, which change rapidly in response to changes in voltage, to achieve high-speed and energy-efficient computation. By integrating biological principles with electronic circuits, sodium computing aims to overcome some limitations of traditional silicon-based computing, such as power consumption and heat generation, potentially leading to more sustainable and efficient computing technologies.
