The First Electronic Computer [PDF]

open access: possiblePhysics Today, 1987
Until recently most Europeans interested in computing would have claimed that the first electronic computer was the Colossus, designed and constructed in Bletchley, England, by the mathematician Alan Turing and his colleagues, operational in December 1943 and used to decipher the German Enigma code, with a decisive effect on the course of World War II.

Electronics and Computing

The ANNALS of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, 1989
Electronics and computing are among the fastest-moving areas of science and engineering. The universities have played and will continue to play a major role in advancing the state of the art. Nowhere is it more important to be at the cutting edge of technology from the point of view of defense, and nowhere is academic research more rewarding.

Electronic Texts are Computations are Electronic Texts [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of the Philosophy of Education, 2000
L'auteur aborde le probleme du changement de nature du texte, article ou livre, dans un environnement informatise. Il apprehende phenomenologiquement les differences actuelles entre l'imprime et le rendu virtuel de l'imprime, il met en question ces differences en se placant au niveau de l'enonciation des criteres qui permettent de parler de continuite ...

Electronic Microarrays in DNA Computing

Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 2011
DNA Computing is a rapidly-developing interdisciplinary area which could benefit from more experimental results to solve practical problems with the current biological tools. In this study, we have integrated microelectronics and molecular biology techniques for the storage of information and basic arithmetic operations via DNA.

Electronic Digital Computers

Nature, 1948
A small electronic digital computing machine has been operating successfully for some weeks in the Royal Society Computing Machine Laboratory, which is at present housed in the Electrical Engineering Department of the University of Manchester. The machine is purely experimental, and is on too small a scale to be of mathematical value.

Computers, Electronics and the Future

1983
It is clear that the future of electronics, or at least a large part of its future, will be involved with computers. Just as the IC has in many cases replaced complicated circuits using discrete components, so it seems likely that the microprocessor and its offspring will replace whole systems.

Electrons and Computation

1982
At a recent ceremony in New York City, a new electronic calculator was dedicated to JL A. science. The calculator reads “written” instructions for performing the most complex calculations, has an internal “memory” capacity for instructions and problem data totaling 400,000 digits, performs the various arithmetical operations in a few thousandths of a ...

Geodetic Computations by Electronic Computer

Journal of the Surveying and Mapping Division, 1971
The electronic computer makes the recomputation of old control surveys on the North American Datum of 1927 economically feasible. Restoration of the Massachusetts Town Boundary Survey of 1882–1914, comprising 1,501 main scheme triangulation stations and 7,000 town corner monuments, began in 1967. Completion date for this project has not been determined.
