Is this similar to what Berkeley MPC Lab is doing with quadratic programming using electricity? I.e. that nature has means to solve optimization problems in an instant and our approximations of this process in the form of differential equations allow us to do something similar, albeit not 100% accurately?

Would you kindly provide link to the Berkeley MPC Lab work?
