A new chip aims to dramatically reduce energy consumption while accelerating the processing of large amounts of data.

A team of engineers has proven that their analog computing device, called a memristor, can complete complex, scientific computing tasks while bypassing the limitations of digital computing. A team of ...

Modern computers are built on digital logic, but that approach may be reaching its physical limits. Researchers are now ...

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, ...

In 1961, the best general purpose desktop computer money could buy was the Pace TR-48. At just 400 pounds and $25K, the only downside was that it was a little tough to program. That's because the ...

While most of computing in the world is still digital, the data around us is captured in analog via sensors–images through cameras, temperature, and sound, for example and has to be converted in a ...

Back in September this year, I wrote a blog on analog computing for AI applications. This followed from ongoing efforts by a few organizations to use analog computing hardware and systems in a ...

The Catalyst Campus business park is home to Okika Devices, which recently moved their headquarters from California to Colorado Springs. Three months after Okika Devices moved its headquarters to ...

In the discussion following Brian Bailey's blog, Operations per Joule, the subject of quantum computing came up. I posted a couple of links, one regarding a potential type of optical quantum computer ...
