Hybrid Computer

Hybrid Computer
  • Hybrid computers are computers that comprise features of analog computers and digital computers. The digital component normally serves as the controller and provides logical operations, while the analog component normally serves as a solver of differential equations.
  • Hybrid computers can be used to obtain a very good but relatively imprecise value, using an analog computer front-end, which is then fed into a digital computer process to achieve the final desired degree of precision.
