Science Buddies: Programming Nanor Gs in a Virtual World

Curated by ACT

Imagine yourself as a software engineer, a decade and a half from now. You are called upon to help solve the world energy crisis by programming nano-organisms (NANORGs) to extract energy from industrial sludge. Your program must be small enough to fit in the NANORGs' tiny processors, yet at the same time meet several challenges. In this project, you will design an assembly-language control program for the microprocessors of a colony of nano-organisms in a virtual world.
