Visible to the public Detecting and Recovering from Faults in Programmed Molecular Systems

Abstract:

For reliable operation of programmed molecular systems, the capability to detect faults when they occur and to initiate recovery is essential. Since a faulty system cannot be depended upon to report its own failure, a monitoring device is needed. The work presented here describes the design of one such fault protection device, called a molecular watchdog timer.
