ALGOL
ALGOL (short for "Algorithmic Language") is a family of imperative computer programming languages originally developed in 1958.
See Electrologica X1 and ALGOL
Amsterdam
Amsterdam (literally, "The Dam on the River Amstel") is the capital and most populated city of the Netherlands.
See Electrologica X1 and Amsterdam
ARM architecture family
ARM (stylised in lowercase as arm, formerly an acronym for Advanced RISC Machines and originally Acorn RISC Machine) is a family of RISC instruction set architectures (ISAs) for computer processors.

Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica
The Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (abbr. CWI; English: "National Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science") is a research centre in the field of mathematics and theoretical computer science.

Computer
A computer is a machine that can be programmed to automatically carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations (computation).
See Electrologica X1 and Computer
Core rope memory
Core rope memory is a form of read-only memory (ROM) for computers.

Edsger W. Dijkstra
Edsger Wybe Dijkstra (11 May 1930 – 6 August 2002) was a Dutch computer scientist, programmer, software engineer, mathematician, and science essayist.

Electrologica
N.V. Electrologica was a pioneering Dutch computer manufacturer from 1956 to 1968, when it was taken over by Philips.
See Electrologica X1 and Electrologica
Electrologica X8
The Electrologica X8 (or EL X8) was a digital computer designed as a successor to the Electrologica X1 and manufactured in the Netherlands by Electrologica NV between 1964 and 1968. Electrologica X1 and Electrologica X8 are computer science in the Netherlands and computers designed in the Netherlands.
See Electrologica X1 and Electrologica X8
Interrupt
In digital computers, an interrupt (sometimes referred to as a trap) is a request for the processor to interrupt currently executing code (when permitted), so that the event can be processed in a timely manner.
See Electrologica X1 and Interrupt
Magnetic-core memory
In computing, magnetic-core memory is a form of random-access memory.
See Electrologica X1 and Magnetic-core memory
Ones' complement
The ones' complement of a binary number is the value obtained by inverting (flipping) all the bits in the binary representation of the number.
See Electrologica X1 and Ones' complement
Philips
Koninklijke Philips N.V., commonly shortened to Philips, is a Dutch multinational conglomerate corporation that was founded in Eindhoven in 1891.
See Electrologica X1 and Philips
Transistor computer
A transistor computer, now often called a second-generation computer, is a computer which uses discrete transistors instead of vacuum tubes. Electrologica X1 and transistor computer are Transistorized computers.
See Electrologica X1 and Transistor computer
Z22 (computer)
The Z22 was the seventh computer model Konrad Zuse developed (the first six being the Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4, Z5 and Z11, respectively).
See Electrologica X1 and Z22 (computer)
ZEBRA (computer)
The ZEBRA (Zeer Eenvoudige Binaire Reken Automaat translated Very Simple Binary Automatic Calculator) was one of the first computers to be designed in the Netherlands, (the first one was the "ARRA") and one of the first Dutch computers to be commercially available. Electrologica X1 and ZEBRA (computer) are computers designed in the Netherlands.
