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 or ...

But shuttling data between the processor and memory eats up time and energy, particularly for data-hungry artificial-intelligence (ai) models. An analysis by Amir Gholami and colleagues at the ...

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 ...

Introducing the early digital / Thomas Haigh -- Inventing an analog past and a digital future in computing / Ronald R. Kline -- Forgotten machines : the need for a new master narrative / Doron Swade - ...

New research from UC Riverside found computer-use AI agents often push ahead with unsafe or irrational tasks, raising questions about whether today’s desktop agents are ready for sensitive everyday ...

The current computing curriculum is so focused on programming skills that other essential digital skills are left by the wayside, according to a report by the Subject Choice, Attainment and ...

When old tech dies, it usually stays dead. No one expects rotary phones or adding machines to come crawling back from oblivion. Floppy diskettes, VHS tapes, cathode-ray tubes—they shall rest in peace.

Quantum computers are coming. Or, at least, that's what current predictions say. These machines harness the power of quantum ...

Happy 80th anniversary, ENIAC! The Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer, the first large-scale, general-purpose, programmable electronic digital computer, helped shape our world. On 15 ...

You don’t need 0s and 1s to perform computations, and in some cases it’s better to avoid them. Computing today is almost entirely digital. The vast informational catacombs of the internet, the ...
