Analog Programmable-Photonic Computation

[EN] The foundations of a new class of computation theory, termed Analog Programmable-Photonic Computation (APC), explicitly designed to unleash the full potential of programmable integrated photonic technology are presented. Outstandingly, APC enables overcoming basic theoretical and technological limitations of existing computational models and can be implemented in other technologies, consequently exhibiting the potential to spark a ground-breaking impact on the information society.image This work was supported by the ERC-ADG-2022-101097092 ANBIT, ERC-POC-2023-101138302NUMESH, H2020-ICT-2019-021-871330 Neoteric, the Spanish MINECO Juan de la Cierva Incorporacion program, Spanish MICIN Planes Complementarios Comunicacion Cuantica projects QUANTUMABLE-1 and 2, the Generalitat Valenciana PROMETEO 2017/017 research excellency award,& nbsp;and Infraestructuras FEDER IDIFEDER/2018/031, FEDER IDIFEDER/2020/032, and FEDER ID-IFEDER/2021/050.
