A well labelled diagram of a hybrid computer according to functionality.
Answers
Answer:
Hybrid computers are computers that exhibit features of analog computers and digital computers. The digital component normally serves as the controller and provides logical and numerical operations, while the analog component often serves as a solver of differential equations and other mathematically complex equations. The first desktop hybrid computing system was the Hycomp 250, released by Packard Bell in 1961.[1] Another early example was the HYDAC 2400, an integrated hybrid computer released by EAI in 1963.[2] In the 1980s, Marconi Space and Defense Systems Limited (under Peggy Hodges) developed their "Starglow which consisted of three EAI 8812 analog computers linked to an EAI 8100 digital computer, the latter also being linked to an SEL 3200 digital computer[3]. Late in the 20th century, hybrids dwindled with the increasing capabilities of digital computers including digital signal processors.[4]
