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 ...

We are always impressed with something so simple can actually be so complex. For example, what would you think goes into an analog computer? Of course, a “real” analog computer has opamps that ...

In the 1930s, the Russian scientist Vladimir Lukyanov built an analog computer known as the "Water Integrator" or "Lukyanov's Integrator." This computer was built to solve partial differential ...

Unlike traditional room-sized computers, these analog quantum simulators are small ... Researchers used a simple circuit combined with two quantum components to test the simulator.
