  Using micromagnetic simulation, we show that in-plane uniaxial magnetic
anisotropy (IPUA) can be used to obtain FAN-OUT, AND and OR gates in an array
of coupled disks with magnetic vortex configuration. First, we studied the
influence of the direction of application of the IPUA on the energy transfer
time ({\tau}) between two identical coupled nanodisks. We found that when the
direction of the IPUA is along the x axis the magnetic interaction increases,
allowing shorter values of {\tau}, while the IPUA along the y direction has the
opposite effect. The magnetic interactions between the nanodisks along x and y
directions (the coupling integrals) as a function of the uniaxial anisotropy
constant (K {\sigma} ) were obtained using a simple dipolar model. Next, we
demonstrated that choosing a suitable direction of application of the IPUA, it
is possible to create several different logic gates with a single array of
coupled nanodisks
