The solution to faster computing?

A team from the universities of Sheffield and Leeds have found that sound may be the key to faster computing. Certain types of sound waves can move data quickly, using a minimal amount of power. Also, the direction of data flow depends on the sound's pitch. This is the first time that surface acoustic waves have been applied to a data storage system. One of its perks is that it can travel several centimeters without dying. Therefore, a single sound wave can be used to relay messages to large numbers of nanowires all at the same time. Because of this, you can move a lot of data using very little power.
