The idea is to use a (regular) 2-dim array of quantum dots (QD) to form nodal ponts in a conductive network. Each QD (node) is vertically connected to a bistable resonanant tunneling diode (formed in the "substrate"), and to a driving current injection line (bias line). Each node then forms a non-linear (bistable) element, and the network dynamics is governed by equations describing neural networks. The systems represents (in principle, at least) a direct implementation of nanoscale technology for computational purposes, without first building (nanoscale) transistors, logic gates, etc.
