description: Proceedings of a June 1996 workshop, reflecting developments in this cutting-edge field only one and a half years after Leonard Adleman's pioneering use of DNA molecules, protein enzymes, and chemicals to solve a hard computational problem. Papers discuss potential pitfalls and the general practicality of building DNA-based computers. Specific topics include applying molecular computation to the data encryption standard, running dynamic programming algorithms on a DNA computer, and active transport in biological computing.
