Computers don’t simply "understand" code in the way humans do. They rely on a highly sophisticated series of steps to ...

While the analog computer in question did use ICs for the core op amps, the choppers and other circuitry to make them work well took up an entire board. Programming is all done with patch cables.

An analog computer uses easily measurable quantities such as voltages or rotations (rather than programming languages, codes, or algorithms) to represent numbers.

To program an analog computer, you simply wrote out the equations you wanted to solve, converted them to a block diagram, then wired the various computing elements together with pluggable cords on ...

A new compiler for analog computers has been developed, a program that translates between high-level instructions written in a language intelligible to humans and the low-level specifications of ...

What does analog computer actually mean? Find out inside PCMag's comprehensive tech and computer-related encyclopedia.

A new research project could simplify the process of using analog computers for complex biological modelling.

As requested by readers, editor Andy Turudic demonstrates that it’s child’s play to set up an Analog Computer to compute a Lorenz Attractor.

A universal quantum computer uses quantum mechanics to process massive amounts of data and perform computations in powerful new ways not possible with today’s conventional computers. This type of leap ...

He set up his program with resistors and capacitors to simulate some sort of mechanical structure and results appeared on a meter and a strip-chart recorder. As best I can recall a company called EAI ...
