Despite this, Babbage's work fell into historical obscurity and the Analytical Engine was unknown to builders of electro-mechanical and electronic computing machines in the 1930s and 1940s when they began their work, resulting in the need to re-invent many of the architectural innovations Babbage had proposed.

Rather than propose a single definition for ubiquitous computing and for these related terms, a taxonomy of properties for ubiquitous computing has been proposed, from which different kinds or flavors of ubiquitous systems and applications can be described.

As the world undergoes increasingly extreme and erratic weather, a variety of international bodies, especially the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, which has been particularly hard-hit by tropical storms, have proposed projects to use their vast computing resources to attempt to intervene, utilising chaotic effects to their advantage, in global weather patterns with such precision as to minimise weather-related destruction while also minimising the scale of the efforts necessary to do so.

Kak claimed to be the first to have used the term " quantum neural computing ", taking a Quantum mind position not unlike that notably proposed by Roger Penrose in The Emperor's New Mind which was published in 1989.

In turn, those bureaus were trying to fulfill the vision of computing as a utility, which was first proposed by John McCarthy in a speech at MIT in 1961.

Turner notes that in 1983, The Whole Earth Software Catalog was proposed by John Brockman as a magazine which " would do for computing what the original Earth Catalog had done for the counterculture: identify and recommend the best tools as they emerged.

The proposal became a major focus for conflict between those who regarded the proposed directive as a way to codify the case law of the Boards of Appeal of the European Patent Office ( unrelated to the EU institutions ) in the sphere of computing, and those who asserted that the directive is an extension of the patentability sphere, not just a harmonisation, that ideas are not patentable and that the expression of those ideas is already adequately protected by the law of copyright.

Rather than considering the computer as a highly efficient tool for calculating or computing, she proposed understanding the computer as a medium.

Rather than to propose a single definition for ubiquitous computing, a taxonomy of properties for ubiquitous computing has been proposed, from which different kinds or flavours of ubiquitous systems and applications can be composed and described.

Zuse proposed that the universe is being computed by some sort of cellular automaton or other discrete computing machinery, challenging the long-held view that some physical laws are continuous by nature.

Greg Benson, USF Associate Professor of Computer Science, invented the name " flash mob computing ", and proposed the first idea of wireless flash mob computers.

It releases a consultative package that includes: the revisions to the Basel II market risk framework ; the guidelines for computing capital for incremental risk in the trading book ; and the proposed enhancements to the Basel II framework.

In this article, they proposed an algorithm for computing a Nash equilibrium in a finite two person non zero-sum game.

Probit models were introduced by Chester Bliss in 1934, and a fast method for computing maximum likelihood estimates for them was proposed by Ronald Fisher in an appendix to Bliss 1935.

Particularly in the framework of soft computing, significant methodologies have been proposed with the objective of building fuzzy systems by means of genetic algorithms ( GAs ) or genetic programming ( GP ).

For example, in the 1985-1987 period, the virtual synchrony model was proposed and emerged as a widely adopted standard ( it was used in the Isis Toolkit, Horus, Transis, Ensemble, Totem, Spread, C-Ensemble, Phoenix and Quicksilver systems, and is the basis for the CORBA fault-tolerant computing standard ; the model is also used in IBM Websphere to replicate business logic and in Microsoft's Windows Server 2008 enterprise clustering technology ).

The implication of this attack is that all data encrypted using current standards based security systems such as the ubiquitous SSL used to protect e-commerce and Internet banking and SSH used to protect access to sensitive computing systems is at risk.

His work, as important as it was in its own right, was a part of a continuum of progress in communications and electronics that since his time has brought forward color television, the personal computer, the Internet, cable and satellite radio and TV, personal mobile phones, audio, video and computing, digital stereo radio on both the medium wave and VHF-FM bands, and digital high definition television on VHF, UHF, cable and satellite.

Scott Kurowski wrote the Internet PrimeNet Server that supports the research to demonstrate Entropia-distributed computing software, a company he founded in 1997.

GIMPS is registered as Mersenne Research, Inc. Kurowski is Executive Vice President and board director of Mersenne Research Inc. GIMPS is said to be one of the first large scale distributed computing projects over the Internet for research purposes.

Since 1997, all newly-found Mersenne primes have been discovered by the “ Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search ” ( GIMPS ), a distributed computing project on the Internet.

However, with the increase in computing power and Internet connectivity during the late nineties, and the shift of online gaming to the mass market, the term " graphical MUD " fell out of favor, being replaced by MMORPG, Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game, a term coined by Richard Garriott in 1997.

In computing, the Post Office Protocol ( POP ) is an application-layer Internet standard protocol used by local e-mail clients to retrieve e-mail from a remote server over a TCP / IP connection.

If there was a net gain, one could in theory use a number of control nodes for which many hosts on the Internet form a distributed computing network completely unawares.

* ZeroC's Internet Communications Engine ( Ice ) distributed computing platform.

SSH is important in cloud computing to solve connectivity problems, avoiding the security issues of exposing a cloud-based virtual machine directly on the Internet.

In computing, is a computer network diagnostic tool for displaying the route ( path ) and measuring transit delays of packets across an Internet Protocol ( IP ) network.

When primarily concerning the objects involved, it is also physical computing, the Internet of Things, haptic computing, and things that think.

In his model of a pervasive computing system, Castells uses the example of the Internet as the start of a pervasive computing system.

In computing, a uniform resource locator ( URL ) is a specific character string that constitutes a reference to an Internet resource.

An intranet is a computer network that uses Internet Protocol technology to share information, operational systems, or computing services within an organization.

In computer networking, the term IP address spoofing or IP spoofing refers to the creation of Internet Protocol ( IP ) packets with a forged source IP address, called spoofing, with the purpose of concealing the identity of the sender or impersonating another computing system.

Despite his involvement in computing, he does not use the Internet, stating that he does not like to have " technical or mechanical things around me " as it distracts from the process of invention.

IEEE Internet computing, January / February 2000, 4 ( 1 ): 69-71.
