Abstract
Micromagnetics supports emergent discrete structures, an emergent dyna mics, and emergent conservation laws; here we discuss these features i n view of their potential to be harnessed for computational purposes. More generally, we use micromagnetics as a concrete setting for discus sing how fine-grained, massively parallel computation might be achieve d in a homogeneously fabricated and homogeneously driven medium.
