Parallel pairwise operations on data stored in DNA: sorting, XOR, shifting, and searching.

Prior research has introduced the Single-Instruction-Multiple-Data paradigm for DNA computing (SIMD DNA). It offers the potential for storing information and performing in-memory computations on DNA, with massive parallelism. This paper introduces three new SIMD DNA operations: sorting, shifting, and searching. Each is a fundamental operation in computer science. Our implementations demonstrate the effectiveness of parallel pairwise operations with this new paradigm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
