Resumen de Developments in computational models: introduction

María Isabel Fernández, Ian Mackie

• In recent years several new models of computation have emerged that have been inspired by the physical sciences, biology and logic, to name but a few (for example, quantum computing, chemical machines and bio-computing). Also, many developments of traditional computational models have been proposed with the aim of taking into account the new demands of computer systems users and the new capabilities of computation engines.
