21computer — computerlike, adj. /keuhm pyooh teuhr/, n. 1. Also called processor. an electronic device designed to accept data, perform prescribed mathematical and logical operations at high speed, and display the results of these operations. Cf. analog… …
22Register machine — In mathematical logic and theoretical computer science a register machine is a generic class of abstract machines used in a manner similar to a Turing machine. All the models are Turing equivalent. Contents 1 Overview 2 Formal definition 3 …
23IBM System/360 — The IBM System/360 (S/360) is a mainframe computer system family announced by IBM on April 7, 1964. It was the first family of computers making a clear distinction between architecture and implementation, allowing IBM to release a suite of… …
24Random access machine — In computer science, random access machine (RAM) is an abstract machine in the general class of register machines. The RAM is very similar to the counter machine but with the added capability of indirect addressing of its registers. Like the… …
25Algorithm examples — This article Algorithm examples supplements Algorithm and Algorithm characterizations. = An example: Algorithm specification of addition m+n =Choice of machine model:This problem has not been resolved by the mathematics community. There is no… …
26Booting — This article is about bootstrapping operating systems. For the general concept, see Bootstrapping. For other uses, see Booting (disambiguation). In computing, booting (also known as booting up) is a process that begins when a user turns on a… …
27Counter machine — A counter machine is an abstract machine used in formal logic and theoretical computer science to model computation. It is the most primitive of the four types of register machines. A counter machine comprises a set of one or more unbounded… …
28Wang B-machine — As presented by Hao Wang (1954, 1957), his basic machine B is an extremely simple computational model equivalent to the Turing machine. It is the first formulation of a Turing machine theory in terms of computer like models (Minsky (1967) p. 200) …
29Algorithm — Flow chart of an algorithm (Euclid s algorithm) for calculating the greatest common divisor (g.c.d.) of two numbers a and b in locations named A and B. The algorithm proceeds by successive subtractions in two loops: IF the test B ≤ A yields yes… …
30History of virtual learning environments — A virtual learning environment (VLE) is a system that creates an environment designed to facilitate teachers in the management of educational courses for their students, especially a system using computer hardware and software, which involves… …
