As complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) scaling continues to offer insurmountable challenges, questions about the performance capabilities of Boolean, digital machine based on Von-Neumann architecture, when operated within a power budget, have also surfaced. Research has started in earnest to identify alternative computing paradigms that provide orders of magnitude improvement in power-performance for specific tasks such as graph traversal, image recognition, template matching, and so on. Further, post-CMOS device technologies have emerged that realize computing elements which are neither CMOS replacements nor suited to work as a binary switch. In this paper, we present the realization of coupled and scalable relaxation-oscillators utilizing the metal-insulator-metal transition of vanadium-dioxide (VO2) thin films. We demonstrate the potential use of such a system in a non-Boolean computing paradigm and demonstrate pattern recognition, as one possible application using such a system.
