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.

Although computers are overwhelmingly digital today, there’s a good point to be made that analog computers are the more ...

Early computers could perform fairly complex calculations just by arranging a few analog circuits. By choosing appropriate resistor and capacitor values, arithmetic summers, integrators, and ...

A new study shows that metamaterials can be designed to do "photonic calculus" as a light wave goes through them. A light wave, when described in terms of space and time, has a profile that can be ...

See refrigerator-esque and semi-trailer-sized models, including an early mobile computer. The Vintage Computer Festival East is a once-a-year museum exhibit in Wall, New Jersey that shows off vacuum ...

Physicists have invented a new type of analogue quantum computer that can tackle hard physics problems that the most powerful digital supercomputers cannot solve. New research published in Nature ...

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 ...
