Figure 1 | Articial neuron based on a phase-change device, with an array of plastic synapses at its input. Schematic of an articial neuron that consists of
the input (dendrites), the soma (which comprises the neuronal membrane and the spike event generation mechanism) and the output (axon). The dendrites
may be connected to plastic synapses interfacing the neuron with other neurons in a network. The key computational element is the neuronal membrane,
which stores the membrane potential in the phase conguration
of a nanoscale

Micheli device. Owing to their inherent nanosecond-timescale

dynamics, nanometre-length-scale dimensions and native stochasticity, these devices enable the emulation of large and dense populations of neurons for
bioinspired signal representation and computation.

Conclusions
Computing is evolving in various directions and permeates
everyday life and activities
Computing is still mainly based on von Neuman architectures,
switching theory and silicon devices
New materials and devices can change the physical substrate
of computation, making it more efficient and broader in scope
Progress will require a strong coordination of technology,
architecture and software as well as design methods and tools
