Abstract
In one aspect, a computational machine includes an optical device configured to receive energy from an optical energy source and generate a number Nof optical signals, and a number Nof coupling devices, each of which controllably couples a plurality of the number Noptical signals. The coupling devices are individually controlled to simulate a computational problem. In another aspect, a computational machine includes a number Nof parametric oscillators and a number Nof coupling devices, each of which controllably couples a plurality of the number Nof parametric oscillators together. The coupling devices are individually controlled to simulate a computational problem.
