How Do You Teach the Memristor?
Abstract:
"I don't think the memristor will be taught in undergraduate courses until it is widely adopted in industry for the simple reason that any circuit containing even only one memristor must be analyzed by nonlinear techniques," he told me in an email. "Most professors are educated in linear theories, and are illiterate on nonlinear circuits." As a result, he says memristor circuits will likely be taught initially by computer simulations, like SPICE, where you don't need to know much about nonlinear circuits.
