DAChaos 2014 - Symposium on Dynamics and Applications of Chaos in the Muthuswamy-Chua System

In this symposium, we will discuss the dynamics and applications of the Muthuswamy-Chua system [2] [4]. This system is simply composed of an inductor-capacitor-memristor in parallel (series) and hence is the simplest (in terms of number of fundamental circuit elements) electronic circuit [3] that can exhibit chaotic behavior.
Topics of the symposium include:
Introduction to the fourth fundamental circuit element - the memristor [1].
Unique properties of the memristor.
Discussion of a physical memristor - the fluorescent discharge tube.
Analog memristor emulators.
Dynamics of the Muthuswamy-Chua system.
Applications of the Muthuswamy-Chua system.
Note that more topics may be added as the 2013-2014 academic year progresses.
