Sumario: | With the slowdown of Moore’s law, many emerging electronic devices and computing architectures have been proposed to sustain the performance advancement of computing. Among them, the Ising machine is a non-von-Neumann solver that has received wide attention in recent years. It is capable of solving intractable combinatorial optimization (CO) problems, which are difficult to be solve using conventional digital computers. In fact, many CO problems can be mapped to finding the corresponding ground states of Ising model. At present, Ising machine prototypes based on different physical principles, such as emerging memristive oscillators, have been demonstrated, among which the Ising Hamiltonian solver based on the coupled oscillator network simultaneously holds the advantages of room-temperature operation, compact footprint, low power consumption, and fast speed to solution. This paper comprehensively surveys the recent developments in this important field, including the types of oscillators, the implementation principle of the Ising model, and the solver’s performance. Finally, methods to further improve the performance have also been suggested. |
