This Number System Beats Binary, But Most Computers Can’t Use It Why do computers only work with the numbers 0 and 1? There are machines that process three digits with more efficiency than you ...

The next evolution of artificial intelligence technology is upon us. It will be driven by a whole new kind of hardware.

A mixed binary/decimal system may have made some calculations easier.

Analog computing uses continuous signals rather than binary code, making it capable of solving problems that push digital ...

Scientists have made a quantum computer that breaks free from the binary system.

The quantum computer, however, is an entirely difference concept – the reason it’s quantum is that it doesn’t use binary logic. By its nature a quantum computer is a yes/no/both device.

Memo to the developers of superfast quantum computers: give up on the familiar 1s-and-0s binary system used in conventional computers. By switching to a novel five-state system, you will ...

When most of us look at computers, we see wiring and hard plastic cases. Maybe some blinking lights, or switches. When Mark Richards looks at those same computers, he sees art. You might come to ...
