As classic digital computers are about to reach their physical and
architectural boundaries, interest in unconventional approaches to
computing, such as quantum and analog computers, is rapidly
increasing. For a wide variety of practical applications, analog
computers can outperform classic digital computers in terms of both
raw computational speed and energy efficiency. This makes them
ideally suited a co-processors to digital computers, thus forming
hybrid computers. This second edition of "Analog and Hybrid
Computer Programming" provides a thorough introduction to the
programming of analog and hybrid computers. It contains a wealth of
practical examples, ranging from simple problems such as
radioactive decay, harmonic oscillators, and chemical reaction
kinetics to advanced topics which include the simulation of
neurons, chaotic systems such as a double-pendulum simulation and
many more. In addition to these examples, it contains a chapter on
special functions which can be used as "subroutines" in an analog
computer setup.
