Even within contemporary sources, there is a spectrum of understanding around what constitutes analogue computing. To understand the relationship between analogue and digital computing, and what this means for users today, the history must consider how the technology is used.Technology for Modelling investigates the technologies, the concepts, and the applications of analogue computing. The text asserts that analogue computing must be thought of as not just a computing technology, but also as a modelling technology, demonstrating how the history of analogue computing can be understood in terms of the parallel themes of calculation and modelling. The book also includes a number of detailed case studies of the technology‘s use and application.Topics and features: discusses the meaning of analogue computing and its significance in history, and describes the main differences between analogue and digital computing; provides a chronology of analogue computing, based upon | 出版日期 | Book 2010 | 关键词 | Analog Computing; History of Computing; Reservoir; computer; modeling; university | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-84882-948-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4471-2573-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-84882-948-0Series ISSN 2190-6831 Series E-ISSN 2190-684X | issn_series | 2190-6831 | copyright | Springer-Verlag London Limited 2010 |
