New architectures for computation offer performance advantages for specific applications such as optimization and machine learning. In this talk, I will discuss the potential benefits of spintronics, with a focus at the system level. Collective switching of multiple spins promises to reduce the power delay product relative to conventional field effect transistors. But spintronic phenomena can also be exploited to realize novel devices such as programmable nonlinear function evaluators and coupled oscillators, providing potential benefits beyond traditional von Neumann architectures.
