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.

Physicists have built a new type of digital-analogue quantum simulator in Google’s laboratory, which can be used to study physical processes with unprecedented precision and flexibility. Two ...

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 ...

An analog-digital approach to quantum simulation could lay the foundations for the next generation of supercomputers to finally outpace their classical predecessors. Reading time 3 minutes Quantum ...

In this nearly all-digital age, analog systems are a vanishing breed. Certain cars still have analog dashboards. A lot of people prefer analog clock faces to something that looks like the timer on a ...

We are all used to modular construction in the analogue synth world, to the extent that there’s an accepted standard for it in EuroRack. But the same techniques are just as useful wherever else ...

Devices known as universal quantum computers can be programmed to run different algorithms, thereby dispensing with the need to build new quantum computers for different functions. Fully fledged ...

Creation of a single-chip analog/hybrid computer reveals that special analog versions of computers could be used to solve complex problems such as nonlinear differential equations. Just recently, I ...

Makers and computer enthusiasts interested in building their very own analogue computer, may be interested in a new modular analogue computer kit showcased by the grappendorf.net website this week.
