ALGOL 60

ALGOL 60 (short for Algorithmic Language 1960) is a member of the ALGOL family of computer programming languages.

See SMIL (computer) and ALGOL 60

BARK (computer)

BARK was an early electromechanical computer. SMIL (computer) and BARK (computer) are computer hardware stubs.

See SMIL (computer) and BARK (computer)

BESK

BESK (Binär Elektronisk SekvensKalkylator, Swedish for "Binary Electronic Sequence Calculator") was Sweden's first electronic computer, using vacuum tubes instead of relays. SMIL (computer) and BESK are IAS architecture computers.

See SMIL (computer) and BESK

Computer

A computer is a machine that can be programmed to automatically carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations (computation).

See SMIL (computer) and Computer

Emulator

In computing, an emulator is hardware or software that enables one computer system (called the host) to behave like another computer system (called the guest).

See SMIL (computer) and Emulator

History of computing hardware

The history of computing hardware covers the developments from early simple devices to aid calculation to modern day computers.

IAS machine

The IAS machine was the first electronic computer built at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton, New Jersey. SMIL (computer) and IAS machine are IAS architecture computers.

Institute for Advanced Study

The Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) is an independent center for theoretical research and intellectual inquiry located in Princeton, New Jersey.

John von Neumann

John von Neumann (Neumann János Lajos; December 28, 1903 – February 8, 1957) was a Hungarian and American mathematician, physicist, computer scientist, engineer and polymath.

Numerical analysis

Numerical analysis is the study of algorithms that use numerical approximation (as opposed to symbolic manipulations) for the problems of mathematical analysis (as distinguished from discrete mathematics).

Sweden

Sweden, formally the Kingdom of Sweden, is a Nordic country located on the Scandinavian Peninsula in Northern Europe.
