A computer that processes analog data is known as an analog computer. Analog computers store information in physical quantities in a continuous format and use measurements to perform computation.

An analog computer is a system that provides information in continuous form. These computers can only represent physical quantities such as pressure, weight, voltage pressure, speed, and more.

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. Anabrid’s THAT Analog Computer provides a flexible, ...

Although computers are overwhelmingly digital today, there’s a good point to be made that analog computers are the more efficient approach for specific applications. The authors behind a recent paper ...

Scientists have been working toward developing a novel mathematical approach that will help advance computation beyond the digital framework. Your computer performs most tasks well. For word ...

When your only tool is a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail. That’s an old saying and perhaps somewhat obvious, but our tools do color our solutions and sometimes in very subtle ways. For ...

There are many different schemes for making quantum computers work (most of them evil). But they pretty much all fall into two categories. In most labs, researchers work on what could be called a ...
