摘要
DNA experiments are proposed to solve the famous ''SAT'' problem of computer science. This is a special case of a more general method that can solve NP-complete problems. The advantage of these results is the huge parallelism inherent in DNA-based computing. It has the potential to yield vast speedups over conventional electronic-based computers for such search problems.
