But there are other ways to do computing, and they affect your outcome differently. That’s why [Bill Schweber’s] analog computation series caught our eye. One great example of analog vs ...

The analog computer of decades-gone-by is something many of us younger engineers never got the chance to experience first hand. It’s pretty much a case of reading about them on these fine pages ...

A thermometer is a simple analog computer. As the temperature varies, the mercury moves correspondingly. A slide rule is another example. Although special-purpose, complex analog computers are ...

Digital computers have served us well for decades, but the rise of artificial intelligence demands a totally new kind of computer: analog. Hurricane 'Rapidly Intensifies' Into Major Storm Here is ...

Vannevar Bush and his colleagues made more complex, room-sized electrically powered analog machines for doing complex calculations. These were called differential analyzers. Analog computing by no ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have developed a brain-inspired analog computing platform capable of storing and processing data in an astonishing 16,500 conductance states ...

The Russian scientist Vladimir Lukyanov built an analog computer in the 1930s that was called the "Water Integrator" or the "Lukyanov's integrator." This computer was built to solve partial ...
